The interpersonal politics are worst in nonprofit and public sector. By a whole lot.
I work in academia and this is so true it's not even funny. The Noble Mission™ aspect makes up for it, somewhat; I'm still undecided as to whether it's enough.
(Though working in academia might be better in this respect if you're not faculty. Anyone who insists that American universities are hotbeds of liberalism has never sat on a faculty senate, is all I'm sayin'.)
