Pros

Overall, GAINS is a great place to work. The team is one of the friendliest groups I've ever worked with and the ELT is supportive overall. I’ve had the chance to work with some wonderful colleagues while challenging myself to continue to learn and grow.

Cons

While I've had a positive experience thus far, there can be occasional shifts in priorities that may feel a bit unclear. However, management works hard to keep everyone aligned, and those challenges are typically short-term.
