Pros

Since a large part of the position depends on what sort of political campain you're sent to, your tasks may vary. For me it was a lot of software administration, data reporting, and security on-boarding. What you will have regardless of where you go is a solid group of coworkers whose brains you can tap if you are asked to do something you aren't 100% sure about. As long as you perform your duties as assigned by either your campaign or you DigiDems director, you're golden. And the directors are always there to help answer any pressing questions you may have or just be a good ear for you to vent any frustrations to.

Cons

None that are specific to the company. Any cons like a lack of work/life balance come from the nature of working on a political campaign and not from DigiDems itself. Likewise, your job will be different depending on which campaign you're on and the campaign's structure and culture will affect you more than anything DigiDems does. The main con is that since its a campaign job, the position and excellent pay that comes with it, ends at the end of November. They will help you secure post election day employment and as campaigns are always happening may have continuing positions, but don't expect this to be the 9-5 you can retire from in 30 years. Lastly, as its a temporary (6-3 month) position, there are no benefits. The pay is definitely enough for you to obtain your own healthcare on the open market, but there is no benefits package.

Pros

DigiDems treats its employees very well. Good pay, good training, great management. My Director (immediate supervisor) was really good. Management has a focus on training and supporting people in the field rather than cracking the whip. They always keep it really positive.

Cons

Temporary with the political campaign season (although they did hire a few people for one-year positions after election day, and they tried to help place people). No benefits. Long hours. Your actual experience on the job will depend more on the campaign that you're assigned than on DigiDems' great management. Many campaigns don't devote enough resources to tech, so you may not have much chance to use your skills. DigiDems makes no effort to match Organizers to campaigns by geographical proximity. It's pretty likely that you'll be sent to a campaign on the other side of the country.
