Pros

World class research theoretically possible. Lots of knowledgeable people around to talk to. Flexible work environment. Mostly good people who mostly work hard.

Cons

Funding terrible. Bad management at the top levels. Elderly work force. Morale is really low. Benefits are eroding. Middle of nowhere but terrible standard of living.

Pros

Everyone here is great to work with. Work is interesting.

Cons

Middle of nowhere, takes almost a full lunch break to just get anywhere. Some Managers are hired only for their experience in the field and not how they can/would manage staff. Still annoyed about getting the covid jab to keep my job. It was pointless and got sick anyway 3 weeks later. No apologies or acknowledgment for any wrong doing will ever be made.
