Business outlook
Pros
Pew is insulated from the budget cuts affecting many other agencies in Washington, DC and I am not worried about losing my job. Pew is also self-funded, which gives me the opportunity to pursue research that I think is important without relying on external funding to make that research happen. I also feel that the benefits and work-life balance are excellent.
Cons
A very bureaucratic and risk-averse organization. Everything takes about 3x longer than it needs to because of the many layers of management and many different departments that need to be involved to do literally anything.
