Business Outlook
Pros
Leading pay for postdoc positions, benefits, time off, and opportunities for growth
Cons
More of a con for postdocs generally than Sandia specifically is the lack of performance based bonuses/compensation. Promotions to staff are competitive so many people stay as postdocs for longer or find other companies. Prolonged government shutdowns can threaten position stability and funding.
