Pros

Good sense of achievement as the work is actually contributing to real life changes in the world of science A lot of diversity Really good people within the labs

Cons

Too many cover ups when things go wrong A lot of favouritism The occasional borderline inappropriate innuendos from certain senior leaders in the company Terrible regard for our daily lives - changing the rota multiple times within a short time frame. Constantly want you to go above and beyond for the company ie stay until 10pm on extreme occasions but they do not even extend the same to their staff Look at staff like cattle/numbers instead of human beings I could reel off a 100 more cons but unfortunately I have things to do but overall just a really negative place to spend 40 hours a week at, the type of place that puts you ruins your whole week before it’s even started.
