Public Knowledge is one of the most effective and impactful tech policy organizations in DC, and that shows from the numerous tech policy wins that PK has been a part of, including Comcast-TWC merger and net neutrality. The senior staff are the most respected and intelligent people in their fields of expertise (copyright, net neutrality, patents, spectrum) and help foster the education of other staff to their issues. There are lots of opportunities for staff at all levels to work with different organizations inside and outside the beltway, speak on panels/hearings, and attend conferences. The vacation and health insurance benefits are top notch for a non-profit, and most people on staff are really friendly.

The leadership change in 2014 has led to a lot of exits throughout different levels of the organization (senior, mid-level, and entry level) in the past year, and it hasn't slowed. For a small (20-25 people) organization, this negatively impacts the internal morale of the organization. Salaries for entry and mid-level staff could be better considering the work load.
