70% commercial or vendor diligence. Remainder is a mix of corporate strategy and other stuff. No travel, which is nice. I think pay is mostly competitive. When you look for exit ops there is a lot to consider on buyside, but we don't have as much prestige / recognition on the corporate side. Really strong exit ops to life science from what I understand. Have received recruiter messages from Southwest and Nike but most everything else is middle market stuff.

I am only 4 months into being a surgical coordinator. I love the position itself however I am struggling to adapt into my new work environment. My position puts me in a place where I need to interact with my new coworkers but they are not as welcoming as I expected. There is also another surgical coordinator however I have come to find from other staff that there is a long history of her running other staff away and not fully training other surgical coordinator staff properly. Any suggestions?
