Pros

Excellent mission and personal fulfillment. Flexibility. Most of the people are wonderful people to work with. We save lives everyday.

Cons

Too big to make logical, nimble business decisions. When easy fixes are found for issues in the field, there are too many hoops to jump through to get changes made that would make the work easier and more understandable for those performing the front-line jobs.

Pros

Fulfilling and rewarding work helping people from all walks of life in their time of need with out all the entitlement issues.

Cons

They are feeling the financial pinch just as many companies are these days. Some areas of our restructuring were really well planned out while other areas seem to have been completely neglected in this process. This means that their is a disruption in workflow as they no longer function as a member of a body but more of a tumor.
