Pros: I work in engineering. The people I work with are bright and engaged, an interesting (and, I think, healthy) mix of CS Ph.D. types and people with other backgrounds. People believe in the mission. The organization seems very well run, particularly under the current Executive Director.

Cons: Team cultures can vary pretty widely, and there are some curmudgeons here and there. Happily, they are not the norm.

Pros: Remote job, large company to work for.

Cons: No flexibility, lots of meetings, and teaming with contractors is so messy.

Pros: Veteran software engineer, and this is my favourite job I've had. The work is worthwhile, there are some *very* smart and capable people among my colleagues, there's lots of variety and opportunities for learning, and I am free to choose the work/life balance that I want. Note that the pay range for each role and level within that role is set at -/+20% around the median for that role/level within an individual country/region.

Cons: It can be chaotic. Decision-making is often consensus-driven, with lots of involvement from the volunteer community. Because it's a non-profit, there's no bottom line, and it can be very difficult to decide on priorities.
