Pros

-Free coffee and cafeteria drinks -Free cake once a month to celebrate birthdays -Large holiday party with (taxed) prize give away -Management seems approachable and positive (sometimes.)

Cons

-Non competitive pay -Unequal pay between departments -Basic benefits at best. NO SICK DAYS!! (Where's the commitment to public health?) -Management plays favorites, and doesn't even try to conceal the nepotism. -No promotions within. External applicants consistently chosen. -Lab staff treated like peasants and paid very poorly. -Janitors, as well as other positions requiring only a high school diploma, compensated better than the entire lab staff with bachelor's and master's degrees. -In some cases, co-workers will do whatever it takes to climb the ranks. I've seen the same three employees get 4 people fired since November. (5 months) These three were also promoted in secrecy.

Pros

Free Coffee, Nice Paved Parking Lot, Wonderfully designed Offices, Christmas Parties, Nice PTO.

Cons

This is an organization that will literally play favorites even if your performance is better or on par with others. It's an organization does not pay competively. Which would make sense for a non for profit, but it sure acts like a for profit. There is no growth. Take a position here if you really need experience and might be struggling to find opportunities out there. Staff development is weak, training is weak, the internal structure is weak. The communicative and administrative structure is broken due to internal processes that are inconsistent and confusing. The culture needs help.
