Pros

Awesome benefits, especially time off and health insurance. I've been here 15+ years and have been able to move up in responsibility and salary. Admin works hard to take care of it's people and support us in career development and health and well-being. The staff including admin are a very caring and loving group of people and everyone I've worked with is passionately mission-driven in a way you don't often see.

Cons

Depending on your politics, it may be hard to fit in. VERY progressive crowd.
