Pros

Colleagues are mostly mission driven and brilliant. Leadership is ok, but environment is very dependent on department. Great place to launch a career.

Cons

Current funding and science climate is rough.

Pros

Good mission, decent pay for a non-profit

Cons

The community isn't what it once was. It feels disjointed. Leadership appears weak and spineless, which muddles the mission and translates to a lack of inspiration. It was a better place when Eric and the last generation of leadership were running things
