      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Incredibly smart and caring colleagues working on important issues Benefits package (particularly PTO) is unmatched in this sector

      Cons

      A lot of change (systems, operations, structure) with not enough thought put into change management. Transparency around decision-making, at leadership and department-levels, needs to be improved.
