Pros

Benefits, job security, training, hours are nice and ability to telework.

Cons

Poor upper management, Low pay compared to private sector, no career development. No matter how hard you work you will get a low rating for review unless you are good friends with your manager. They limit how many employees can get above an average review and generally the higher ratings are given to managers and close friends.

Pros

Working with the some of the smartest scientists and clinicians in the world. So many learning opportunities. Kind patients. Allowed time to care for patients as there is no pressure of quotas by health insurance.

Cons

Nursing management can be verbally abusive with frequent retaliation and intimidation. As most older nurses have worked there for most of their career, they are dismissive of new perspectives and resistant to evidence-based practice.
