Pros

Nice area geographically, well respected institution with great retirement plan. Some very bright people and management that is generally supportive of changes for improvement.

Cons

This is an institution with some serious growing pains. Behind the scenes there tends to be confusion at times and poor communication among the many expanding groups. There is an attempt to improve processes.

Pros

Flexible hours, on-site gym, noble research concepts. a step stool for your biotech career

Cons

Immature, back-stubbing, gossip-mill work environment, absolutely NO accountability, favoritism, no team work. Things are different at BH and Connecticut, I heard. not too impressive benefits once you get them
