Satisfaction, resources, efficiency, etc. are highly dependent upon what department you work for - Research Scientist The Broad Institute Employee Review

In my particular department, there have been many layoffs, a ridiculous reorganization, and lack of support. Loss of grant(s) have caused a significant downsizing in staff. Unfortunately, there has not been a similar downsizing in the scope of projects or equipment required. With no money, the result is a lot of broken (sad) equipment without service contracts and a very overworked staff with no guidance, oversight, support, or working resources. Morale is exceedingly low and people are actively fleeing.
