Pros

Awesome benefits and I think the salaries are very fair. I learned a ton and had wonderful managers. Best job I've had in my 20+ years in science.

Cons

Difficult to get promoted; lots of politics involved and the rules are unclear and not consistent in my opinion. Can be difficult to get flipped from a contract role to FTE as rules regarding FTE headcounts are not transparent.
