Pros

There is free coffee and often food after events

Cons

Pay is barely a living wage (even with masters degree and years of relative experiment). I would estimate that pay is about 25k below market rate for a technician. I also heard they took away raises during covid. Meanwhile president makes more than 10x technician rate.

Pros

Interesting work. Science happens there.

Cons

Chronic underpayment for scientific staff unless a Principal Investigator. They own you and your ideas, shamelessly.
