      Good overall but for staff research positions, compensation is low compared to industry averages.

      Pros

      Good benefits including medical, dental, and retirement. Acceptable coworkers, fair supervisor. Raises are automatic because of union.

      Cons

      Fairly poor compensation compared to industry standard- tends to hire at bottom of pay scale and with 3%/yr raises, it will take years (if ever) to catch up to a similar position in a private company or even with government.

      Pros

      Good health care and people are nice.

      Cons

      Work is repetitive. I guess that's what you get for being in public institution.

      Pros

      A majority of the people you will work with are the nicest people you'll ever meet in a workplace. The benefits and time off are awesome.

      Cons

      Everything depends on what department you work in. A few are great, most a good, a few are awful. Many managers got to their position not necessarily by being competent at their job but by managing to outlast everyone else. Every job is politics heavy and affecting any change can be almost impossible. Know your place and keep your head down is generally the name of the game.
