Pros

compassionate, caring employees who really care about the mission interesting, challenging work and you can definitely be "stretched" if you are willing to go for it benefits are fantastic lots of opportunity for paid time off, but the availability sometimes depends on your particular manager your co-workers take the time to understand what you're doing and say "thank you" looks good on your resume

Cons

constantly re-organizing and changes at top management levels dictate constant turnover many times, better opportunities are given to people coming from the outside vs. looking at internal talent
