Pros

You get to work with some of the best doctors in their field. There is a very diverse workforce and the institution as a whole employs personnel with years of experience and who are resourceful.

Cons

A majority of the administrative support or clerical positions in research operations are dual or even triple assignments. Most have a very large workload that is usually spread out amongst departments for the same position at a pharma company or CRO.

Pros

Positive professional work environment, Good benefit- vacation, retirement

Cons

Low pay in comparison to market. For coordinator- very slow growth. Heavy work load- plus all other department dump extra work on coordinator. Only for employee medical benefit is good but if you add family its same like all other employer. Long provisional period- 6 months. Has to use your own logistic- laptop, phone, no compensation for phone bills or laptop damages. Has to pay for parking $2-300 per month, still difficult to get parking and it takes 10- 20 minutes from parking to start work in the office No overtime , NO BONUS.
