Pros

- Some wonderful individuals at the organization, friendly, small family vibe. - Interesting work. Always something to do. - Depending on who your supervisor was, you could have a flexible schedule with work at home arrangements.

Cons

- Before 2016, PRB had one of the best vacation benefits I had ever seen. It was a huge factor in why I chose working there. But this is no longer the case. - Bad apples in management. One can never underestimate how damaging one person can be to a department's morale. - Old-fashioned in many respects. Closed office structure, slow to adopt new technologies. - A big deal was made in adopting a "gender-friendly" workplace structure. I did not witness any concrete changes after this was said.

Pros

PRB is an amazing place to work, with dedicated, intelligent and fun professionals. The flexible work schedule is done so well. The office space is beautiful. The projects that we work on are instrumental in making global change around access to healthcare resources, equity concerns and climate issues. In my short time here, I have begun to make some great relationships, have learned a lot and am enjoying being valued as one of the newest team members.

Cons

The staff work in different time zones around the world, so coordinating times for the teams to get together, can be challenging at times.
