Pros

It's a nice place to work. The real situation for scientists depends mainly from your PI. Mine is fine - I conduct independent research as my PI understood I can do it. So my position differs from post doc only by not writing grants. So I can concentrate on the research itself. My job is interesting and challenging in a good way.

Cons

The main problem - is not having enough money for a family. Doing the same stuff in a company I can get at least twice bigger salary.

Pros

Great opportunities for clinical/research integration. My department funded 1 local conference where I presented my research.

Cons

Extremely low pay for Boston cost of living. Limited promotions (1 every 2 years if you’re lucky).
