Pros

Science here is fantastic because everyone is so open to collaboration. The science is high caliber! Also, there are lots of resources, support for grant writing and submission, & great benefits. Also, the Gladstone has a very active Postdoc Advisory Group that organizes seminars for career development and professional skills like networking and presentation skills. Really makes the entire training well rounded.

Cons

Facilities support can be unresponsive at times. When equipment needed to be fixed or replaced, they would either show up without announcement, or take a very long time to respond. The facilities people themselves are generally helpful and friendly. Mix of very old and very new equipment. Overall, mild complaints though.

Pros

Opportunities for educational development. Flexible work time. Great work life balance and great benefits. Opportunity to attend scientific talks and conferences weekly .

Cons

Management should encourage more involvement of Research Associates in scientific part of projects rather than just be involved in technical part.

Pros

I started my Gladstone life as a postdoc trainee. There are many training programs to improve your capability for your next-step career, for both academic and industrial directions. Many training programs are free for Gladstone trainees. Gladstone also has very good scientific environment to inspire you and good research cores to support your projects. Salary is also a little higher than university.

Cons

San Francisco has very good whether, but research pressure keep you in the lab most of time, although it totally depends on what you really pursue for your career.
