Pros

Great pay & benefits, mostly hire great people, strong work hard/play hard culture, strong focus on the patient

Cons

A company-wide move to flatten leadership and adopt a matrix-style organization has pushed the site way beyond its capacity for change, loss of front-line leadership impacted individual contributors negatively and over-taxed the remaining leaders
