Pros

Good overall benefits, they have become more competitive with salary range for clinical dietitians in areas that have difficulty with hiring.

Cons

Work life balance all depends on who your immediate supervisors are. I did not have this issue, my supervisors were great but this is a common complaint working as a dietitian for this company.
