- “The organization provides the most current and up-to-date computer software and hardware available to allow us to do our jobs well. They also provide non-work activities and outings during the year, which makes you feel like part of a team/family and not just a number.”
- “They seem to actually put people first. I feel free during the pandemic to say, ‘I can't work today,’ or ‘I want to keep working from home,’ without fear of reprisal of any kind.”
