Pros

Strict structure if you are into that The pay was salaried, but you have the perks of leaving at 4:30 Good location

Cons

I worked as a scientist, and it was impossible to exceed expectations. Your job was to do science without any errors. If you committed an error, you got strikes against your raises/bonuses. If you were perfect, you 'met expectations'. science in general has a glass ceiling. Don't expect a masters degree to get you more than a $2/hr increase over your peers.

Pros

Great colleagues, lots of young people, one of the best in the business. Very good salary, benefits and healthcare package.

Cons

Senior IT management consists of people that do not have IT education. Many people managers don't have a clue about IT. Sometimes it can take months for simple IT tasks to be accomplished, people with 10+ years in the company are quite easygoing.
