Pros

Salary, benefits, beautiful campus, well equipped, flexibility

Cons

If you are over 50 you probably won't be hired for an on-campus job. If you are over 50 and already work on campus beware.

Pros

Meaningful work: people really are committed to improving the lives of patients with serious health problems -- that's a huge plus Strong science and research focus Strong commitment to sustainability Good salaries and benefits Global opportunities and many opportunities for short-term assignments in other locations/departments (with manager approval)

Cons

Lots of great line managers (esp first time line managers). But be VERY wary of middle management. Too many have their own agenda, are out for themselves, give only lip service to company values etc. Will not back you up; in fact, would not hesitate to throw you under the bus if it helps advance their career. Senior management either doesn't know or doesn't care about the middle management problems Says it has a speak up culture but the reality is a long way from the ideal Matrix organization = office politics galore HR is not on your side Many depts seem to be reorging with possible loss of positions
