Pros

On Campus - lots of life Campus is pretty and near the Potomac Most people on campus are incredibly nice Georgetown University has a free bus that picks up employees at the Dupont Circle metro Tuition benefit appears to be pretty great

Cons

Not the easiest to get to Salary is low when compared to anything in the private sector Not very efficient in regards to getting a project from start to finish, lots of tip-toeing around, not a smooth or efficient process HR department is not very responsive or helpful Many offices are not easy to get to, not many elevators, if any in some buildings Lots of smokers on campus

Pros

Job security throughout budget cuts happening in the public health industry currently. Plenty of PTO and holiday paid leave.

Cons

Constant threats by upper management to "write us up/disciplinary action" for anything. Director is really unfair/disrespectful/condescending to our supervisor and so that trickles down to data coordinators. For example currently there is a threat that we will be "written up" if we do not meet all the competing deadlines. Ive seen sooo people many come and go in this sector over the past 3 years its insane. Its alot of data to manually enter and one must be organized /driven and on top of your game but it gets borring if your not passionate about the cancer trials you are working on.
