Pros

The Broad Institute was a great place to start working after college. The benefits are very good and the work environment is fun. When I started, there were a lot of great people working there.

Cons

It is very difficult to gain recognition for your work. While there is some lateral mobility through groups (in the genomics platform), most promotions are decided internally, with not many possibilities to apply for higher positions.

Pros

Benefits, such as PTO and health, are fantastic.

Cons

A pro and a con are there are rarely set ways to do things. You can pave your own way, but others could be paving a way to the same destination and just creating more paths when it would be better to work together.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! We love that you feel the autonomy to pave your own way here, and recognize that also can present its own challenge with duplicating efforts.
