Pros

Worklife balance was a positive. You shouldn't ever have to take work home with you.

Cons

Battelle follows their own policies if it suits them. The mid-level management team is generally ineffective and untrustworthy. Employee benefits are continually reduced year after year in cost saving measures. Employees on client sites are generally viewed as not a true part of Battelle, so on site staff may have a positive perception. They are constantly realigning their business focus from services to products and back again.

Pros

They pay my salary on time.

Cons

-They are run like grad school. They have you compete against your co-workers for funding, they consider rules and laws as simple impediments to be overcome by capricious edicts, they will treat you like a rented mule if you let them. I have come to the conclusion that senior management cares very little about work conditions or employees, only about the bottom line. This experience has significantly changed my opinion of not-for-profit companies. If you are a researcher looking for an open and collaborative environment with shared goals, I suggest you look elsewhere.
