Pros

Will hire anybody, although good luck finding another job after - No Labels is widely ridiculed by anybody at respectable organizations (whether the organizations are non-partisan, conservative or liberal). If "No Labels" is your only job experience, interviewers WILL laugh in your face.

Cons

If you to meet megalomaniacal psychopaths in real life, come work here. Everyone at the top has a deluded sense of self-importance and will demand 24/7 attention: 75 hour weeks every week are one thing if your organization is actually doing something but when it's solely due to the incompetence, disorganization and laziness of senior management, it's not worth it. The two immediately working just under the CEO will be sadistic just to be sadistic.

The Positive Reviews Are Faked by the CEO

Pros

No Labels has a great mission and it's a very educational first job in DC, but before taking a job consider if it's suspicious that all "current employees" give 5 stars and all former employees warn you to RUN. Pros: People leave so much, it's easy to take on more responsibility (without pay). You can wear jeans to work. Free LaCroix.

Cons

I don't have anything to say that hasn't been said in every other (real) review. This job has the intensity and aggression of Wall Street with a minimum wage paycheck. Constant expectation to be on email and at a computer. Fear and blame and no ability to defend your performance to your boss. Insular decision making and change in direction with no warning. Random firing and quitting every few weeks. More backstabbing than high school. An absolutely astounding amount of psychological misery, but you can infer that from every thumbs-ed up review on this site. In an office of ~30 staffers, more than 20 people quit/were fired in 2017, and that was a GOOD year. Don't be one of them.

A thin veil of good reviews that attempt to ignore the real experiences

Pros

The people outside of senior management were a great community to meet, I just wish the initial connections weren’t from having to reset an entire event at 2am the night before. The volunteer supporters are amazing people who are hungry to enact real change. Hopefully they find a better place to channel that energy.

Cons

The leadership there are self-involved and delusional in thinking thag their constant inconsistency and demands are going to change anything. What’s said to be a typical D.C. whirlwind job is really a factory that has unreal turnover from young and experienced people alike because they burn everyone out to the point that people physically and mentally break down.
