Pros

Will meet good peoples affiliated with type 1 diabetes; fundraising and education is for a good cause. Good benefits. Better cultural values than in past.

Cons

Stress on staff toward performance with not enough staffing support. Pay not aligned with expectations. Good benefits but out of pocket health costs, including monthly premiums, rising. Performance review process definitely needs an overhaul. Salaries not keeping pace with economic realities.
