Pros
- Opportunity to work on great projects that make a difference - opportunity to work with great peers and build lifelong friendships due to youthfulness of company - great way to build responsibilities and transferrable skills for those interested in data science or public policy directions - great way to get management experience earlier than what you would get in other companies
Cons
- I thought the company was trying to improve retention rate, but I don't think so anymore. It's a problem. People across different teams and departments are dropping like flies, especially senior levels. - Poor management with overworked directors leading to excessive delegating to mid-level managers - delusional directors that view people as replaceable - only new hires are for DPA I positions, when there should be more that are hired at the Policy Associate or Policy Lead level - 2016 has become a critical year for company, Its organizational structure and employee bench are at volatile point
