Pros

The buffalo and hiking trails.

Cons

The lab use to be a decent place to work, however, has steadily declined the last 5 years. What use to be a place where coworkers were like family and good friends, has turned into an unbearable place to work. There’s an uptick in turnover due to the incompetence of senior managers. The lab is so dysfunctional, chaotic and toxic most people on the outside would be dumbfounded if they spent a week here.

Pros

Working here is awesome, you get to meet and work with different people, they encourage you to continue your education or learn something new. Management really looks out for their employees.

Cons

Budget cuts, but every company has sometimes
