Business Outlook
Pros
NIH has an excellent mission supporting the health and providing research for the benefit of all Americans. The environment is supportive, the work sites are modern and pleasant, and the people are wonderful to work with. Management keeps you apprised of what is going on and maintains open communications with employees.
Cons
It's a large agency, so you can get lost in the numbers. As a federal agency, it is subject to whatever the current political landscape is.
