I appreciate the opportunities but man I wish I left sooner.
Pros
I advanced quickly and produced exceptional KPIs. I got to build and lead a great staff of kind and hardworking people. This is a good career builder but don’t let them take advantage of you or stay too long.
Cons
Easily the senior leadership. At first I thought it was me, or maybe just a few bad experiences. However after time it seems our leader didn’t live the values he asked us to live and his staff increasingly became like him. A culture of blaming and covering up instead of integrity and leadership. Ultimately what pushed me out the door was unequal opportunities, and wow was I rewarded when I moved on. I love my new company and am recognized for what I do. It sadly took a few months to get used to that feeling after working so long in that environment, but a good sign I made the right decision. Expect to pay more for less in medical coverage than a typical company in this area.
