Svantaggi
IDRI in 2019 is it crisis. Management, fiscal, staffing, multiple issues. In the first third of 2019 IDRI shed more staff than they average in a year. CEO was made to vacate his position, and so went the Finance Officer (and Board member), HR Director (and borad member), long time staff Attorney, long time Communications Director, Governence Officer, etc. etc. and now shining research stars resign every month. One group of TB researchers resign in mass in the spring. Discussion of shutting down labs to pay the bills, encourages more staff to seek an out. For every year in the last five years, the IT dept hires another staff memebr who is bullied and eventually leaves. A flurry of new hires, to replace those who departed in mass, now resigning as IDRI's Operations Management is incompetent. Until this situation is corrected, and it may never be - new hires should consider themselves fodder in IDRI's employment chaos. Half the staff currently looking for a way to leave. I hope operations management wakes up in time.
