Pros

I LOVE working here! This team is small but mighty. The seniors have become a tight knit family, who all look out for each other, and my supervisor is great.

Cons

It's been a struggle adjusting to a 5-day a week schedule, as I have always had 4 10's or 3 12's. However, the work-life balance is actually better and my supervisor is flexible and understanding.
