Pros

Great people to work with Best in the business for basic research Great view Good salary Ok benefits (UC benefits) On site volunteer opportunities

Cons

If you are not working in research there is a good chance that you will not be gaining skills needed to grow in your profession. As an operations professional I constantly feel as if there is potential to improve the organization but because my job is not research no one invests in me or the work that I do.

Large organizations can have multiple layers of review and approval, which may slow decision-making.

Project priorities can shift based on funding and organizational needs, requiring flexibility and adaptability.
