Pros

For a healthy work-life balance, Harvard is the place. Harvard offers terrific benefits and opportunities to study to its employees. Flex time and near free gym membership are other perks.

Cons

The hulking bureaucracy slows everything down. Career employees are unmotivated. Salary is low. There is not a well developed incentive structure.
