Pros

Great environment to learn more about public policy and be an activist for issues you care about.

Cons

Small staff, high turnover rate. The community in the office is very supportive and helpful, but there tends to be a high turnover rate with the summer interns.

Pros

The training you receive will change our life and career. They do a fantastic job training their new recruits. I still rely on the training I received five years later. Even though the cons are pretty bad, I would do it over again just for the training.

Cons

Horrible pay, cult-like work environment, long hours, you will be asked to give up your life for the work, whether you believe in the cause or not. The culture is extremely odd. You either buy in, or you're kind of shunned.
