Pros

The work-life is pretty balanced. Caltech is a great community with many advancement opportunities.

Cons

Some departments don't promote within therefore if you are interested in going up the latter networking with other departments is a must. ( This can be a pro if you like to network)

Pros

Flexible schedule, lot's of PTO, great health benefits

Cons

Little opportunity for Career growth, poor Management Leadership and direction, poor team dynamics, and little to no collaboration and coordination between "IT" departments. Too many silo techs. There's too much-antiquated technology, lack of interest from the Management heads in my opinion. Caltech deserves better. Fix your parking situation!

Tight knit community, supportive, little to no red-tape delays

Cons

Large gender inequality. While the situation is being remedied, it will take a while to rectify.
