Pros

Amazing vision and what CED stands for.

Cons

The leadership, quite frankly, sucks! In particular, the CEO (Mary Moran) and CFO (Sheila Will) are very two-faced individuals. The CFO is a seat warmer with no personal goals who sucks up to the CEO. Not sure how she even got hired with that personality. While the CEO is 80% fluff who doesn't know anything about growing the economy but she will make it look and sound good.

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.
