Pros

Great co-workers who are incredibly dedicated, knowledgable, and supportive. Employees don't work on any Jewish holidays. Donors (aka Lay Leaders) get to feel as if they are involved in AJC's advocacy - not just making a donation - because they are given leadership positions within the organization.

Cons

Regional offices are not well-staffed. Salaries are low, especially when considering the number of evenings and weekends employees typically work. Lay Leaders (i.e. donors to whom we give volunteer positions within the organization) often wield excessive influence. Relationship between Lay Leaders and staff can often be strained and awkward.
