Pros
Working with the Public Health Officer was a blessing. Dr. Cuevas was an amazing leader and cared about creating a work-life balance. The other epidemiologist team members were very supportive and we were able to complete thousands of case investigations, mitigate the spread at long term care facilities, and summer education centers.
Cons
The location will wear you down if you are african american or identify as Black. You will feel like an outcast, as there were not many of us working at the office or in the town,
