Pros

The mission is admirable and easy to align to.

Cons

Leadership, extreme clique's with opportunities given to their buddies rather than those with experience. Exec Leadership has really suffered that last several years. Time to bring in new leaders and tell those that have been in charge the last 10+ years that their free ride is up.
