      I worked at MedStar Health full-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      Work with great team, boss was flexible positive and receptive to feedback/more than willing to collaborate when it came to assigning projects/responsibilities, flexible environment, plenty of opportunities to move up the ladder, nice laptop

      Cons

      Frequent changes in how things are done due to rapid growth in scope of projects and expansion of team (changes were almost always improvements but required adjustments)
