Pros

Translational work, good experience to find a real job in pharma/biotech. Flexible hours if you find a reasonable PI.

Cons

Benefits for postdocs close to none and they still manage to eliminate any existing benefits. HR will forget to put your yearly raise in effect if you don't ask them to do it by yourself, given how pathetic the base pay is to start with, plus the inflation now, I just want to get out as soon as possible.

Pros

Good benefits and great team/department locally, work felt meaningful and fulfilling to contribute to larger mission

Cons

In the pre-clinical research side, the switch to Workday and subsequent restructuring of roles across MGB made the career ladder stifling and reduced advancement and pay increase opportunities
