Pros
I work in Broad's Genomics Platform, which is run a little more like a business than the rest of Broad's nonprofit research-based work. Great benefits, better people.
Cons
Higher ups demand efficiency and productivity, which is fine, except the ways the ask for it to be reported are often time-consuming and innefficient, leading to decreasedd production. An unwillingness to invest in talented, experienced workers. You can give 100% for years and they'll keep dangling the carrot that is a promotion/raise above your head, saying that if you really want it, you'd prove it by working harder, as if you hadn't been doing that already. Short-sighted vision from management. Not many avenues for advancement without a science background. Promotions are often based on obedience and flattery, rather than merit.

Pros
Most lab managers have fostered a pretty great work environment. You're allowed to complete your work on your own time and business so long as everything is getting done correctly and on time. At least in my case, hard work wasn't rewarded with even more work. Most managers are very understanding about PTO and sick time. Fantastic Work/Life balance
Cons
Hard to move up. There are a lot of people stuck at this level because the senior level positions are filled and they've been around forever. Unless you really stand out, or a position above you is vacated, a promotion is tough to come by. Pay is ok, but definitely could be better.
