Pros

I loved working with most of my teammates, who have since become close friends.

Cons

Most toxic and discriminatory work environment I have ever worked in. Members of the same team are held to different standards, as this is an organization where double standards are a way of life. Weak clinicians who lack both clinical competence and integrity are valued, while strong clinicians (particularly women) who advocate for patients are penalized. Team members also have no voice, especially when it comes to decisions regarding who should be hired into leadership positions. Lateral violence is not only tolerated, but fully supported, even by Human Resources. Bottom line, this is an organization that neglects to put patient safety first, by retaining dangerous clinicians and pushing out strong ones.

Pros

Great mission and it’s a wonderful way to support clinicians with their research and advancement of finding cures

Cons

Workload was not balanced and required more than 40hrs per week, managers were promoted without necessary skills to help team workload and morale, very bad team dynamics due to burnout and feeling that senior managers weren’t proving necessary resources to ease workload challenges
