Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay and generally a good introduction to more specified lab work.

Cons

Expect being blocked from developing further than 'your' area unless its needed. Favorites are played here, and if you end up on someone bad side its the end of you. The blame culture here is also very real, expect to defend your results from not only management but also coworkers, document everything.
