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.
