Pros
Autonomy to assist members with wide array of PI initiatives and in developing subject matter content. Broad scope of work allows for involvement with cross-functional teams/business units. Work with member hospital teams from C-suite to frontline staff.
Cons
Expected to manage multiple complex projects with limited resources (I.e. Pull your own data and analyze for opportunities, become subject matter expert including conducting research and best practices , develop PI program including structure and implementation, Project management). Lack of access to SME Physician/R&D team/evidence based research for developing programs' content. Leadership does not effectively communicate strategic direction of company. Promotions are not based on performance but more on who you know.
