Pros

As with most organizational restructures, there are those resistant to change but those who have been adaptable and have vision for the reasons behind the restructure have excelled. There are still some refinements to be done, but I truly believe JDRF is working towards a collaborative and supportive work environment. The current staff who work in the Vancouver office will win your hearts over. They are passionate, fun, resilient, and have strong work ethic. The driving force behind this small but mighty team is their dedication to the work that JDRF does for the type 1 community. JDRF is determined to find a cure for this disease; there is a reason why JDRF is the leading national charitable funder of diabetes research in Canada.

Cons

Work-life balance is an issue, but they are working on making it a priority.
