Pros

World class lab facility in Cambridge, MA is really a nice place to work. The lab community is also a major benefit.

Cons

Salary is 20-25%% lower than the pharma companies in the area, which makes it hard to compete for housing in a highly competitive market. Research has little profile with exec mgmt, support for research is 30% below what it needs to be.
