You're dead on when it comes to having a consistently updated resource for how things work in the moment. Here's hoping that we can all work together to take a breath and walk through the why of what we're doing now so anyone can get involved.

Pros

I feel truly lucky to work for Cardinal Group! It's an incredible place to land if you're looking for a company made up of great people and a focus on creating and upholding a great culture. This isn't a stagnant company. There are ample opportunities to learn and advance your career, especially if you're proactive. Cardinal Group is surrounded by amazing leaders who are always willing to mentor and share their expertise. It's a fantastic environment to build a well-rounded skillset and propel yourself forward no matter what stage of your career you are in. Cardinal Group offers the best package, with fair compensation to match. They truly care about employee well-being and it shows. An example of a pretty great benefit that is rare is Family Planning & Fertility care and assistance.

Cons

A challenge we face is even though Cardinal Group has been around for nearly a decade and feels established, there's still a strong "startup" feel that can be frustrating. Everyone wears multiple hats and works incredibly hard (sometimes beyond their capacity). It can feel like we're constantly catching up to our own growth.
