Pros

good quality of research, good benefits, strong competitive recruitment, innovative research (uMap platform]

Cons

Over time, this has resulted in a disproportionate number of mediocre employees advancing to higher roles without having delivered meaningful results. A lot of wasted resources, department with hardly any tangible output over years, no accountability, a few people doing the actual work
