Pros

Small org. If you can make a sound business proposal, often projects are given the "green light" which is great if you're someone who wants to gain more experience.

Cons

Flat structure - not a lot of room for advancement.

Please note JDRF Canada is a separate entity from JDRF International. Our international affiliates are valued partners in the worldwide effort to turn Type 1 into Type None. Each international affiliate its own organizational structure and its own CEO.
