Pros

Great training and virtually all fellow employees are nice, genuine and fun people. It's a great cause to be working for and one of a kind. The job keeps you in shape and outside. There are opportunities for advancement and travel. There is at least one briefing a week on a variety of subjects, this job teaches you a lot about yourself and the social justice world as a whole. The pay is good for what you do but if you are in the social justice movement to make money you are missing the point.

Cons

The work can get emotionally hard some days. Since you performance based and not hourly they will try to squeeze as much time out of you as they can. Getting out late can be difficult if you rely on the bus schedule.
