Pros

Great opportunity for post doc work. A handful of people spread across multiple departments have great care for their work.

Cons

A lot of reinforcement of the status quo. Not as leading edge as a university should be - and if you try to do things different you will meet a lot of resistance. Also - very poor management training and as such - very poor management.

Pros

Generally helpful and friendly colleagues. Tallahassee has a small town feel. And now thanks to Obamacare Postdocs get health insurance.

Cons

Doesn't pay well. Also, very few employment opportunities at FSU or in Tallahassee after a Postdoc. (Most jobs want a bachelor's degree.)
