Pros

Compensation and benefits are good.

Cons

Anyone thinking of working there should first take a look at the compensation levels of execs at the top (it's public info; just find a recent 990 tax return online). That will tell you pretty much everything you need to know about why top management invests heavily in short-term revenue-generating schemes without long-term vision and pays little heed to morale lower down the org chart.

Pros

I was able to take on multiple responsibilities, like research and volunteer engagement, with consideration of my time and workload from school.

Cons

At times, I felt like my work wasn’t as important or could’ve been done by my supervisors, especially when projects were close to completion, they would be altered but I understand it was for time efficiency.
