Impactful work with supportive leadership, but constant change required

Pros

I spent 4.5 fantastic years here, and I can honestly say the work CED does is incredibly impactful. You get to see the tangible results of your efforts in the city's growth. I was incredibly lucky to work with an amazing team and bosses. The leadership I experienced was highly motivating and genuinely supportive.

Cons

Due to consistent economic changes and their impact on the city, the organization must pivot quickly. Adaptability is key and as change is constant, which can be challenging if you prefer a highly predictable or slow-paced environment.

Pros

Work surrounded by other motivated high achievers that are pursuing complex challenges and leading with passion, expertise, and a willingness to learn from others.

Cons

Can take a while to break through some facades and get to genuine conversations- sometimes there’s a bit of uptight or overly cautious personalities.
