Pros

Travel the country, competitive wages, amazing benefits, great humanitarian mission. Amazing professional development and networking opportunities. Some of the best and the brightest in the nonprofit world are your colleagues and coworkers. Amazing pay and benefits.

Cons

Working with such high profile people can get stressful at times, so I would advise learning some solid stress management techniques. This is typical with any national organization, so there is something to be said about learning to work with the challenges.
