      Passionate, but could do so much more to find a cure.

      Pros

      Rallies around the mission. There are many talented individuals within the organization who are passionate about finding a cure for T1D. Pay and benefits are in line with the industry.

      Cons

      Struggles to recruit, hire and retain talented executives. For several years, it has been a revolving door of individuals who routinely lack any vision for the organization. Some executives are selected because of their connection to the mission rather than for being exceptional business leaders. As a result, business strategy is inconsistent, ineffective and erratically circuitous.

      Pros

      Immediate manager was great and willing to allow me to take on more responsibility.

      Cons

      Executive Director was competetive with staff and not willing to allow you to grow.
