Pros

It's faith based - so get to learn about other people's view points in the Christian religion, which is interesting. Your work is to help people, in particular kids. Headquarters has a nice campus near a lake with trails - to help get blood moving. Most of the people you meet are there for the right reasons and are nice.

Cons

There are power isiues in certain departments - which is unfortunate being a Faith based company. Sometimes even people with the best intentions let their ego get in the way. In certain departments there is not a lot of growth - but they don't tell you that when your hired. There are some interesting "since of entitlements" among certain divisions, managers, Vice Presidents and Employees.
