Pros

Great mission. Talented and dedicated co-workers.

Cons

Top-down, hierarchical, hypocritical leadership (they do NOT walk the talk, but they talk a lot about doing so). Cliques of power/influence. Junior staff thrown under the bus repeatedly. Dishonest assessments of work performance once it become convenient to do so for higher-ups. HR worse than useless to address toxic workplace concerns. "Burn 'em and churn 'em" ethos. Unless you can come in at senior, SENIOR levels, don't do it to yourself.

Pros

Really excellent place to get experience in the NGO place under your belt. Interesting projects, passionate people, very mission driven. Lots of opportunities to learn a lot. Great springboard. Lots of WLB if you manage your time well. Would consider coming back here.

Cons

Team is all over the U.S. Can make coordination difficult.
