Pros

Some very smart people to work with in EIS who get things done despite of management. Large budget (if you're in the right groups) and can be sent to conferences. Cedars is a great place to work if you just want to skate by, doing the minimum necessary to pull in a salary. You will not be fired as long as you continue to "meet expectations".

Cons

No personal career growth. When I first started at Cedars, I was very impressed with all the folks that had been working there for 10+ years. i thought it would be a place that I could be a lifer at. Then I realized that those folks were still doing the same thing for their entire career at Cedars. Promotions based on tenure instead of ability. Promotions to a management role from existing employees is rare, it seems that they would rather hire from outside to fill these positions. CTO has been with Cedars his entire career and is out of touch with today's way to run an IT department. A lot of talent leaving due to frustration.

Cons

-Can be a bit physically demanding with collecting lots of equipment at times.

Pros

Cedars Sinai benefits were worth the low pay for academic research if you care about insurance and 401k/403b benefits.

Cons

The location was very hard to get to due to traffic. I also was not happy with the low pay for the education and experience I had when I started there.
