Pros

Very active employee resource groups and support professional development.

Cons

There is so much red tape it takes so much longer to get anything done than I would usually expect, and its a very hierarchical organization where titles matter the most in order to get buy-in and approval on projects. Patience is needed to get goals accomplished.

Pros

I was able to take on multiple responsibilities, like research and volunteer engagement, with consideration of my time and workload from school.

Cons

At times, I felt like my work wasn’t as important or could’ve been done by my supervisors, especially when projects were close to completion, they would be altered but I understand it was for time efficiency.
