Pros

For a healthy work-life balance, Harvard is the place. Harvard offers terrific benefits and opportunities to study to its employees. Flex time and near free gym membership are other perks.

Cons

The hulking bureaucracy slows everything down. Career employees are unmotivated. Salary is low. There is not a well developed incentive structure.

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.
