Pros

PACER Center is well known in the non-profit world, respected, and has a nationally acclaimed Bullying Prevention Center. PACER Center has some of the friendliest, hardest-working staff I've ever encountered. Depending on what department you work in it can be trustworthy and flexible, or micro-managed and demanding. Many unique things happen at PACER, like the privilege to meet senators, CEOs, and celebrities, which keep things interesting.

Cons

There is not much room for advancement. The Executive Director micro-manages everything.

Pros

It's a great cause and a once-wonderful organization

Cons

Lack of respect from management; new executive director is very "corporate" and cares little about what those in the trenches know/think/hear from the families PACER helps. Salaries are (too) high at the top but those who work to help families struggle on the low salaries that subsidize management salaries and perks.
