Pros

Still in business of saving lives. Smart, committed employees for the most part. Good compensation and benefits.

Cons

Senior executives who care only about their own ambitions. Lots of lip service about colleague engagement, innovation and diversity; not actual practice. Extremely political environment. Lots of cutbacks that affect only the rank and file; senior execs still living large with many perks. Lots of inequity in promotion and compensation.
