Pros

Trying out lots of new ideas and evolving strategies. Opportunity to make a positive impact for customers and patients. Can work on projects to support the company internally or externally. Many good employees to work with and plenty of challenges professionally.

Work life balance is not very balanced. A combination of hard workers and slackers with few employees in between. Shifting priorities and hard to achieve goals with vary levels of support to achieve those goals.
