Pros

The pros are my team members that support and appreciate my work. The collegial environment among coworkers. And the "mostly" smart, dynamic, and helpful staff.

Cons

Uncertainty of working here due to the incoming administration and what that will mean for PCORI, particulary in regards to the PCORI fee. Lack of transparency and communication from upper management especially during times of uncertainty. Lack of structure in terms of promotion, job titles, and salaries; it varies widely between departments and teams. Lack of acknowledgement for jobs well done or those that go over and beyond.

Pros

Kind colleagues, hybrid work (3 days in office), good benefits, and important mission.

Cons

Top heavy -- too many unnecessary talking heads with large salaries rearranging the deck chairs, while more people are needed to do the actual work. Not much autonomy and very bureaucratic.
