Pros

I met some really great people there. I felt like I was truly a part of something bigger than myself. Loved the goal... health for all, hunger for none. I mentored some brilliant minds, and I am honored to have been there to support them.

Cons

If the team you're working with likes you, you're golden. If you do things a little differently but can still achieve good results, it will not be enough. Basically, fit in or they will find clever ways to get rid of you, like putting you in charge of a project that you have little-to-no experience working on, and then terminate you when things aren't 100% better.

Pros

Dynamic Shared Ownership empowers employees to self-manage, collaborate and minimize decision time for making change. Leadership listens and benefits are great.

Cons

Effective marketing resources lag behind other companies I have worked for but they do eventually get there. Slow to hire vacant positions.

Pros

Indifferent and toxic team, lack of clear responsibilities. My colleague was toxic, spoke rudely to me, and shifted responsibility onto me. Other colleagues and the manager didn't care.

Cons

Hybrid work schedule, bomb shelter, free lunches.
