Pros

Great people, lots of options/flexibility. Your direct leadership makes a big difference in your experience.

Cons

The gov’t sponsors don’t understand good quality FFRDC work well and as a result many project options are not as appealing as they could be. But there are still plenty of great options and teams.

Pros

Work/life balance, colleagues are great people, interesting work, lots of opportunities

Cons

Each year I have been there, benefits have been cut. Hard to find coverage if you need it. I only know what the group I am in does. No idea what the other FFRDC projects are.
