Pros

I work for something I believe in with people who are smart, full of integrity, and passionate about the cause.

Cons

Administration and management quality can be hit-or-miss because it's an international NGO, not a corporation that specifically recruits or attracts managers.

Pros

Non-profit organization where most people are paid through another organization, on loan to SIL. People join the organization because they truly care about the organization's purposes.

Cons

Because people raise their own salary through donations, it's difficult to manage people. Most big decisions require consensus.
