Pros
Company has a long history and a solid reputation. The community supports the opera and the arts in Seattle. New facilities and production models have potential to grow with the needs of a changing market. Donors and subscribers are hungry for good art.
Cons
The organization has gone thru major upheaval in the recent seasons and subscriptions and reviews show it. Departments are in shambles, management is scattered. Institutional knowledge is being thrown out with the trash each day. Relationships with community and labor organizations are being neglected and ignored. Compensation and benefits are decreasing or are stagnant. Staff attrition (both firings and departures) is increasing rapidly.
