Business Outlook

Pros

challenging and satisfying projects and tasks; compassionate management in my line of business; weekly learning and career development opportunity; competitive salary; comprehensive benefits

Cons

maybe things have settled, but in the last ~6 years the company changed their aim twice, meaning some valued team members had to be let go and it was not possible to project what you'd be working on within a year
