*Q: What makes ICPSR a great place to work?*
*A: *As cliché as it sounds, the people are what make ICPSR a great place
to work. My ICPSR colleagues are not only smart and creative, but also kind
and generous in sharing their time and knowledge with others. I also really
appreciate how often I see leadership and colleagues acknowledging each
other’s work and celebrating wins across the organization. It’s great to
work in such a collaborative and supportive environment.
