Pros

Teammates that you can laugh with at all the ridiculous decisions being made by poor excuses for managers at this place. Once they jump ship you have to as well to maintain your sanity.

Cons

-Unethical practices at times -Questionable choices on leadership team (i.e.-inappropriate behavior-dating subordinates) -Lack of licensed staff members -No raises or performance incentives -Constant turnover in staff -Zero communication between departments, stems from being a horribly managed company -Resources spread so thin that important things fall through the cracks

Pros

May Institute has been a great place to grow and enhance my career. I started in an entry-level position over a decade ago and have been promoted along the way to a direct-level position. They have fostered my educational and professional growth with highly-qualified supervisors and meaningful collaboration. They value employees well-being and satisfaction.

Cons

The work can be challenging, but the people are amazing!
