Pros

Snacks, 401K, travel, expenses, weather in SF.

Cons

Ruthless management, driven by sales targets not policy outputs as they make out - not a surprise since Director of C4IR in SF is a glorified salesman. Quality of sector understanding / subject matter expertise in senior management is disappointing, and leads to ineffective management styles and dissatisfaction across the workforce.

Pros

This organization is constantly evolving but I think generally in the right direction. Great place for those who strive in unstructured environments.

Cons

Hours can be long and you have to enjoy travel.

Pros

Great exposure to ideas, good broad experience that can be applied to other jobs

Cons

Lots of infighting at the top, leaks down to lower levels. The Forum makes poor hiring decisions and teams suffer.
