Pros

Harvard is a place that offer several learning opportunities to its employees and great benefits. It also fosters a culture of respect and allows opportunity for growth. There are policies and several resources in place, should employees face difficulties at work or at the personal level.

Cons

The University's decentralization becomes an issue because different schools within Harvard tend to operate differently. There is a culture of idolization of faculty, which leads many of them to abuse their power. There aren't clear resources for those who need career coaching.

Pros

You work with experts from every field possible in science from Mechanobiology to Metallurgy and working as a ML intern along with scientists from different fields gave me a lot of exposure and how to work in a research department.

Cons

One challenge encountered was maintaining a clear focus on training objectives, as the evolving parameters required continuous reassessment of the model's learning priorities. Additionally, the absence of established ground truth for the domain presented a limitation in validating and guiding the approach effectively.
