Pros

Benefits are good but you can't use the time off offered with out negative comments about how you aren't obsessed with work.

Cons

A lot of jerks. So many they had to include "no jerks" in their core values. You can be a great scientist and terrorize your colleagues and you will get promoted. But if you're a good person with not a lot of experience trying to learn you never will. You will just get yelled at for not knowing everything already

Pros

Great for fresh grads to break into the field as well as researchers heading toward retirement. For those in-between who seek growth, seek elsewhere.

Cons

Retention and compensation problems exist. Politics are apparent and favoritism blatant. Leadership not very accountable and the company is constantly losing exceptional talent (and many with latent potential) due to high turnover - salaries are not very competitive and toxic behavior is often overlooked. Ownership with ideas and technology are issues as I have seen Directors and their respective teams take ownership of others' innovative ideas and achievements. Recognition is non-existent or at times, extremely lagging.
