Pros

Great benefits, passionate staff, lots of room for growth...NPR is also just cool, so that helps. Management does a bunch of smart things that spice work up (a weekly produce sale at below-market prices is a new addition) but which don't cost the company a bunch of money. It's smart, and fun.

Cons

Pay is not equivalent to for-profit, although better than most other non-profits. There exists a slight perception of favoritism of content-producing divisions over administrative ones.

Pros

I was fully remote, learned so much from a great group of peers, the union is strong and active, pay was fair

Cons

The federal funding saga put a damper on morale, but that was pretty outside of the scope of what my team/manager could control.

Pros

tiny desks happen at work

Cons

soulless and corporate, management is all-powerful, benefits are slowly disappearing, few career prospects unless you fit a certain "profile"
