Settle in for a lifetime of underachievement and mediocrity - Facilities Manager SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory Employee Review

Pros

Low pressure on performance, good place to work if you’re a loser. Stanford benefits and access. You can work another job at the same time as being a full time employee here. You’re going to have to just to eat.

Cons

No real incentives for achievement, pay is too low to survive in the Bay Area. You literally never get a raise. Management is all Silicon Valley rejects and lifers from other government sectors.
