Pros

This experience was truly amazing. Being able to work alongside senior staff was an incredibly rewarding experience that has greatly benefitted my career development.

Cons

There really were very few downsides with this position. The only main issues I had were that the hours were demanding and early in the morning… But that is to be expected.

Pros

Prestige and fulfillment comes with knowing you work for a top university and are making a direct difference in the area of medical research. Tuition benefits are a plus, as well.

Cons

There is a strict pay scale, so if you have not negotiated with compensation ranges in mind before accepting a final offer, you are likely to remain at that level of pay and title for years beyond your overqualification.

Pros

Great tuition benefits, and good company ethos. Strong suit is being dedicated to medical research, and get to rub shoulders with great minds. Stimulating atmosphere.

Cons

Pay is relatively low, but the tuition benefits make up for it. The HR processing is very slow, and paperwork sometimes takes for ever.
