Pros

Extremely bright people are attracted to great cause and Paul Allen’s unlimited money makes for nice offices and toys.

Cons

CEO is horrible and the rest of mgmt are not far behind. How you can screw up a non profit with tons of money is baffling. Just backwards policies made by a bunch of control freaks with no leadership skills nor backbone to stand up to the tryrant ceo.
