Pros

There are a lot of career development, grant writing, and networking resources available to postdocs. The university uses the NIH pay scale and they cover your insurance. If you are a long term employee (15+ yrs I think) your kids can go there for free/discounted tuition.

Cons

The insurance is less than stellar. You have to use Emory clinics to get the most out of your coverage and it is difficult to get appointments. Pretty much anything other than Emory is out of network.

Pros

Great benefits! Emory gives you 6% contribution to your 403 (b) and also will match your contribution up to 3%. So if you contribute 2% of your salary Emory contributes 9%. Outside of retirement plans, Emory has great healthcare plans, wellness incentives, discounts, and even emergency back-up care for children and elderly. Emory really does a great job at helping their employees achieve a good work-life balance.

Cons

They take forever to promote or hire. May even take months.
