Pros

Best thing about this company is that they have every other Friday off. Pay is decent. Benefits continue to be cut. People you work with are supportive and will leave you alone if you’re competent.

Cons

-Group-think company. -HR is probably the worst part. -Lockstep promotions. -They will oversell the company culture and guilt employees to be underpaid. -Naive leadership. -Woke company. -cares more about diversity and equity than talent. -promotes and hires based on group identity.

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.
