Pros

Benefits/retirement plan are second to none, excellent work/life balance, laidback work atmosphere, well-organized company structure, everyone is working towards a good cause.

Cons

No emphasis on opportunities for training/professional development/career advancement. Employees are rewarded more for tenure than performance; upper-level management overlooks young talent. Many departments are understaffed and salaries do not compensate for this.
