Pros
Intelligent diverse staff Meaningful work that you can see makes a difference Small size Government but acts more like private sector Unique model internationally Successful in acheiving its goals Great place for those sick of working on 'the other side' of pharma to give back
Cons
Management maturity still being developed - many have grown in the org with no other mgmt experience Have to make genuinely tough calls - someone always misses out as funding for pharmaceuticals is limited budget. Parochial view from having managers with light external experience Salary can't compete with private sector but still week paid and can achieve work life balance if you're step g at managing your time and work
