Pros

No Labels has a great mission and it's a very educational first job in DC, but before taking a job consider if it's suspicious that all "current employees" give 5 stars and all former employees warn you to RUN. Pros: People leave so much, it's easy to take on more responsibility (without pay). You can wear jeans to work. Free LaCroix.

Cons

I don't have anything to say that hasn't been said in every other (real) review. This job has the intensity and aggression of Wall Street with a minimum wage paycheck. Constant expectation to be on email and at a computer. Fear and blame and no ability to defend your performance to your boss. Insular decision making and change in direction with no warning. Random firing and quitting every few weeks. More backstabbing than high school. An absolutely astounding amount of psychological misery, but you can infer that from every thumbs-ed up review on this site. In an office of ~30 staffers, more than 20 people quit/were fired in 2017, and that was a GOOD year. Don't be one of them.

Pros

Not just about politics – it’s about bringing people together and trying to do things differently. Transparency about what’s happening and where things are headed. Clear initial training to help you get settled. Regular Zoom events and check-ins to keep everyone in the loop. Thoughtful, smart, and collaborative people. Overall, a great spot if you like taking initiative and being part of something bigger than yourself.

Cons

You’ll need to be comfortable figuring things out as you go.

Pros

You meet some good employees who are stuck here due to one reason or another.

Cons

Working here will test your patience extensively. The workload is high, but the worst thing is their attitude towards employees. Most of the people in power have a good complex and use their power in the wrong manner. Racist behavior, verbal abuse, and rudeness are daily occurrences. The more you tolerate, the more horrible the consequences will be. If you can't speak up when they are being abusive, you'd better quit and look for another job. Don't just take it all, as it will make them feel that they are right. This workplace also has some spineless people who are working hard to protect the reputation of the horrible employer by writing fake reviews. You can see a few 5-star ones and realize how similar they are. It's awful!
