Pros

Very interesting, challenging, and important work. Exciting to interface with so many stakeholders on so many levels supporting a variety of good causes.

Cons

work culture isn't great and opportunities for advancement not so great either... possibly due to both staff wearing too many hats and the distributed nature of the org.

Pros

Smart & socially minded people, competitive salary/benefits, great work/life balance, can see tangible results of work in communities

Cons

Experience almost completely depends on your direct manager and your location - some have more aggressive styles and make great community partners and some are highly conservative, far less transparent in their approach. Decisions can be slow and change comes very hard
