Pros

Humanitarian mission, in helping others, informing and educating public on needs of donating blood and doing humanitarian work for others. First response to disasters.

Cons

Cons about working with a non-profit organization is the compensation and benefits at a job market level. It takes a lot of dedication and hard work for what we do.
