Pros

what more can i say? this is a place dedicated to saving the lives of kids. i love working here. the people are the best and i'm really impressed how focused everything is on the mission and making sure we are there for every lgbtq+ young person. i've also learned a ton working here and excited for some of the professional development i've heard is being rolled out. it's been great to talk to some of the phds and mds and people from the world of tech and public health who are all working here and doing super interesting stuff.

Cons

sometimes working on topics related to suicide and crisis can be pretty heavy, but my friends here are really helpful in picking me up when i need it. also: more social events please!
