Pride in the organization and mission, unlimited opportunities for personal and professional growth, unrivaled leadership and financial responsibilities. Contrary to what is often heard, the pay for officers is fair.

Cons

Long hours at times, a lot of travel and significant periods away from home. Good or bad timing can have a significant affect on career progression.
