Pros

It's a great place with a lot of great people. But the longer I stay here the more I realize that it will never be a good place to work. The problemis just keep happening over and over and over again. Too many leadership changes. Not enough people interested in solving the hard problems. Nobody interested in thinking about the cultural issues that cause so much turnover.

Cons

I really wish that the mission was enough to keep people acting as professionals. But the reality is that too many people without the mission as their first priority have gained leadership positions, including the CEO. That doesn't mean they're bad people, it just means that they are not here for the reasons that some of us are. This causes a lot of conflict.
