Pros

Good people with good skills at the worker level. Some of the senior leadership was good. Decent pay and benefits

Cons

Frequent and dramatic leadership/direction changes. The best leaders are quickly discovered and subsequently overwhelmed with work to the point where they cannot be successful

Pros

Great work life balance, good benefits, decent pay, ease of running your own practice as an “advisor”, and healthy work environment

Cons

Management styles can vary and affect your experience, upper management doesn’t seem to be well equipped to ensure the organization’s success but it is resilient nonetheless.
