Pros

NIH has one of the largest medical research centers in the world and the ability to train students in a diversity of applications.

Cons

The biggest con is that it has a government feel to it, things can be very bureaucratic. For students, sometimes it is hard to get connected to certain opportunities that have good structure to them.

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.
