Not what you think it is

Good benefits, good salary. Day to day is actually somewhat boring and repetitive depending on your position. Must buy in to the “Type A” mindset and culture of working there.

Great place to work.

Meaningful and rewarding work. Great atmosphere full of people who are dedicated to fulfilling the mission and getting the job done. Some days are 9-5, some are not. Days/hours can be long, hard, and unpredictable at times, but that's the nature of the work. Work/Life balance is supported and is generally manageable.
