      Pros

      Excellent colleagues, a good environment for research, top-notch equipment and facilities

      Cons

      No room for career growth. This is more stable than a private sector job but nothing like a tenured academic job.

      Pros

      Great benefits and good hours

      Cons

      If you’re not a liberal or progressive you will be the kid with lice. During the Biden admin your skin color is the only thing that mattered not your skill.
