Pros
Historically, a noble research mission which has now faded
A dedicated staff most of whom have left due to the ongoing funding challenges and frustrations with poor management.
Cons
Very top-heavy organization
Chaotic culture as a result of dealing with constant fire drills
Ineffective and uninspiring CEO
Unsustainable expense model
Poor outlook due to funding crisis and deteriorating relationships with key funders
Shocking lack of results/success for an organization that has received greater than $1B in funding and has existed for more than 25 years!
