Pros

Non profit oriented or non military research, very friendly and relaxed people, one of the best jobs to start your career.

Cons

(depends of the section that the worker belongs and the subject of the work) After some years the job can become a routine and can spoil the worker because of the small evolutionary carrer chances.

Pros

The employment process is very smooth and supportive. The technical team interviewed me for technical skills, and the HR is very supportive and helpful. Especially I haven't been employed by CERN previously, so I have a lot of questions. The employment team is very helpful and answered all my questions patiently. Also I like the job and my work very much.

Cons

Maybe the primary communication method could be email instead of phone calls? I sometimes miss phone calls, but will check every email.
