      Pros

      Great at not keeping the status quo or old mindsets. Great with pushing organizations to evolve and be more efficient. Great with compensation/rewarding performance.

      Cons

      The push for transformational changes about once every two years seems to have created more complexity and not resulted in improved efficiencies in terms of delivering to our customers/patients with greater speed and quality. In fact some recent re-orgs have discarded the lessons learned and improvements from previous transformations and instead invested time in reinventing the wheel instead of improving the wheel.

      Pros

      The work is meaningful and overall the company vision aligns with my goals

      Cons

      QA management has become inept. None of the leadership (aside from maybe one or two) truly understand the nuances of our site and jobs. They refuse to pay you more due to "budget" reasons but won't provide much information, they claim to be transparent but will make decisions behind your back and not communicate them, even if they impact you and/or your job. Leadership doesn't listen to feedback and gets defensive if you even try to give any. It honestly has become a game of politics only in QA and that's not really building any real quality culture.
