Pros

Terrific people. Excellent opportunity to go to work every day with people who share your mission. Some opportunities to travel. It's a real pleasure to work with colleagues from many different cultures and areas of expertise. Decent benefits. Some really great campaigns and wins.

Cons

Lip-service to wellness, but the reality is it is near impossible to stick to 40-hour work week with 100s of emails coming in every day and meetings at all hours if you work with colleagues across time zones. It's hard to feel a sense of accomplishment.
