Pros

M.D. Anderson provides an opportunity for an employee's personal and professional passions to connect in giving hope, respect, and life to individuals. Connection to the mission tops as the primary reasons people come here and stay here and the people that surround you are the most important thing. We have leaders, peers, and colleagues that truly care about each other and, for the most part, exhibit the core values of caring, integrity, and discovery. These elements are critical to giving us a great place to work.

Cons

As a large, complex, state healthcare institution, the challenges of bureaucracy and the slow pace of change can frustrate people. There are still pockets of negative behavior and beliefs that need improvement, but time will make the difference.

Looks great on your resume! Arguably one of the best cancer centers in the world.

Cons

Very political environment so growth opportunities are not always based solely on performance and/or merits.

Pros

Great state benefits, tuition assistance, and cutting edge technology/treatment. I've been lucky with my current department. The faculty are understanding and supportive in my goals to go back to school. They are also appreciative of the work I do.

Cons

Some senior management people tend to play favorites. Salary could be a little better compared to other institutions.
