Inputs are encouraged

e In the beginning there was a lot to leatn, but I quickly adapted. I have a good working relationship with my co-workers. My manaher does not believe in micro-managing and he allows me to make decisions. This has contributed towards my growth as a professional. It was quite refreshing learning how an academic institution works and all the various factors which may have an impacg on the finances. I love that our input matter and that management values our ideaas on how improvements can be made. I love that the always something to learn however I would love a more challenging environment as I believe Im close to approaching the peak in the department in in.

Pros: Academic support
Cons: Less opportunities for growth
