Pros

Location, good salary, onsite gym with free fitness classes. Onsite cafeteria. Close on site parking. Being part of such great and promising research.

Cons

Senior Management is out of touch. No documented processes and it takes forever and 100 meetings for any decisions to be made.

Pros

Pay is competitive, physical space is adequate

Cons

Uneven adherence to policies, management iand senior staff is an old boys club, sexism is prevalent in meetings, influences decision-making at highest levels. A lot of talk about equality but that is not what happens behind closed doors, or occassionally right out in public.

Pros

Growing rapidly, a lot of potential, great collaborative environment, free parking, free fitness, 403b, good med insurance coverage

Cons

Eligibility for the med insurance starts on the first of the month following 30 days of regular employment. So if you are moving with young kids, pray they won't get sick in 30 days or more.
