Pros

Pros: Good name recognition and outside reputation (for now) Interesting, smart colleagues Good decisions lately to cut upper management staff Good work-life balance and flexibility.

Cons

Cons: Low morale and high uncertainty due to continued downsizing and reorganization. This has been going on for 3 years. People are drip, drip being let go. Lack of dynamic leadership - low energy is not inspiring. Big funding challenges - money is running low and there is lots of infighting to get pieces of it. Politics and favorites play a big role in who gets chosen. Bad press - every now and then there is an article that risks lasting damage to the organization’s reputation. Benefits cut recently makes them average (they used to be really good.)

Pros

Mission driven and people that are very hardworking and want to do their best

Cons

The Executive Leadership team needs to be scrutinized. They work against each other and against RA values and devalue the mission of the amazing organization. The answer to every thing is a restructure and reorganization. Very reactive and do not learn from their past mistakes.
