      Good but not great

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good benefits (vacation, healthcare, and 401K) and at times interesting work. Potential for positive impact is nearly limitless and President Clinton is exceptionally inspiring.

      Cons

      Obstacles to achieving positive impact are nearly as limitless as the potential, if not more. Senior management means well, but not effective. Majority of junior staff have never worked anywhere else and have unrealistic expectations of what can and should be possible in career development (expectation to get promotion every year, etc.). It epitomizes the phrase "squeaky wheel gets the grease"

      Pros

      it provides opportunity and growth if you are willing to put in the time. networking is possible at almost any of the levels of employment.

      Cons

      sometimes the extra work you put in doesn't necessarily means or translate into a reward. Schedules are 24/7

      Pros

      Good salary & benefits Mostly great people, except for a tiny minority Interesting work overall Occasionally get to feel I've made a positive impact on the world

      Cons

      Talented people get stuck in dead-ends, very siloed environment, difficult to switch tracks/learn new things, one Exec even said to my face I shouldn't expect support for a promotion/move bc I'm too good at what I'm currently doing. In the rare case of severe personnel disputes, management seems very reluctant to get involved even when it's obvious someone is being victimized. Oh, have I seen people get away with things.
