Pros

The work environment is totally unique: innovation is rewarded and as an individual employee you can really make an impact on the organization and build your skill set. The people there are whip-smart, care deeply about social issues, and are collaborative. It is easy to build internal partnerships and launch new ideas.

Cons

There are a few niches within the organization in which you can become pigeon-holed and in effect be in a dead-end. As well, the salaries are very low.
