Great experience (depending on member), low pay

Constituent liaison

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

You do meaningful work, gain knowledge on so many topics, and can translate the experience into so many different fields

Cons

Low pay, long hours. My experience was largely positive, though I have friends whose experience was informed by the character and leadership of the member and their senior staff. Some members shouldn't be managing teams and it shows in the work experience
