Pros

The checks are consistent. The work is consistent. There is over time if you want it.

Cons

Management treats people like they are tools. From the top of the organization all the way down to the temporary workers. They inspire no loyalty or trust. They have no understanding of teamwork

Pros

Good benefits, nice matching of 401K

Cons

It depends on where you work, and who you work for. You could get a fantastic boss and work with an encouraging team. And then, you could get a horrible boss who is a bully and rules with an iron fist. People don't stand up for their rights - they are too afraid. Scientists do NOT always make good managers. I find that a lot of bosses totally lack people skills. There is a lot of REALLY bad behavior in this company. You may avoid it, but you may not.

Business Outlook

Pros

Competitive pay, great benefits, opportunity for flex hrs and/or telecommuting depending on department and supervisor.

Cons

General lack of respect for subordinates, little to no interest in developing talent. Abuse of power by many mangers with no real support from HR. Moral is very low and many are seeking to leave just as I did.
