Pros

Some very smart and caring people remain sprinkled throughout the organization. Benefits are great, office space is too nice for a not for profit.

Cons

Over compensated senior leadership (VP and above) truly don't know how to lead, plan, or manage. It's a shame. And it won't get better until drastic turnover from the very top occurs. Where is the Board of Trustees? Don't join this organization if you want to learn anything or grow your career.

Pros

Great coworkers to be around, great benefits, work-life balance was perfect before the middle management layoffs. Collaborating with teams is constant and helpful for the design process.

Cons

They cut the research team, relying on designs to take on that plus end-to-end products, which leaves to heavy work loads and late nights. Deadlines are rather quicker than usual since the reorg.
