Pros

Amazing mission, dedicated team, huge opportunity to transform the transplant industry and improve outcomes for patients.

Cons

Operates more like a start up, things move quickly and teams need to pivot fast to keep up. Can be unsettling if not good with change but exciting for the right folks that enjoy working in a high-growth environment.

Pros

Adheres to 135 regs unlike most others 135 companies.

Cons

Once again, the aviation department is attempting to raise pilot pay. However, rumors are already floating that the CEO will get his $2million compensation increase next year, while the pilots will remain at a tier 3 pay. Pilots continue to leave for better pay, yet CEO, Wahleed could care less.

Pros

Some passionate people who work hard You can make a big impact because the company is small but you will need to set boundaries hard and fast.

Cons

-Pay lags behind industry -Relocation details arent clear -HR stymie's career growth -Chaotic organization with conflicting goals and timelines -Many burnt out folks -Some in senior leadership dont listen to those below them. There is significant burn out in manufacturing due to unending overtime and continuous weekend overtime, with no end in sight. -looking back if i could talk to myself before starting here I would talk myself out of it.
