Pros

Good culture and people, friendly atmosphere, constant flux, challenging projects. Right now anybody is lucky to have a job.

Cons

Too Much Managment. I have 4 bosses each with a different agenda. Upward mobility is a murky prospect. Merit increases were frozen for FY08. Restrictions on purchasing make it difficult just to get ordinary things accomplished let alone the real project tasks. Salaries are all over the place and don't seam to correlate with experience or job performance.

Pros

Great products that help scientific researchers

Cons

The enterprise comms dept is awful. A toxic environment marked by instability and burnout. Long‑time employees are pushed out, new hires leave, and the culture is defined by fear rather than collaboration. The core issue is the leadership. Limited enterprise‑level experience and a lack of emotional intelligence have created a culture of micro-managing, reactive decisions, and psychological insecurity. Instead of providing clarity and strategic leadership, the leader fuels confusion, distrust, and exhaustion. The result is a dysfunctional department where morale is low, workloads are unsustainable, and employees feel unsafe speaking up.
