Pros

The culture and vibe at Battelle is inspiring! I’ve been blown away by how truly collaborative of an organization it is and I can see myself staying here for years to come. The 9/80 work schedule allows for every other Friday off, which doesn’t hurt either!

Cons

It’s a large organization with project work in a multitude of areas across National Security, Environment and Infrastructure and Health, so navigation and learning the business can be challenging at times.

Pros

They pay my salary on time.

Cons

-They are run like grad school. They have you compete against your co-workers for funding, they consider rules and laws as simple impediments to be overcome by capricious edicts, they will treat you like a rented mule if you let them. I have come to the conclusion that senior management cares very little about work conditions or employees, only about the bottom line. This experience has significantly changed my opinion of not-for-profit companies. If you are a researcher looking for an open and collaborative environment with shared goals, I suggest you look elsewhere.
