Pros

Collaborations are very easy to come by, and there are a lot of resources at the NIH like career development classes or seminars.

Cons

The campus is very spread out so going to seminars can actually take a big chunk of time out of your day if you have to travel across campus or to different locations. Government red tape slows things down considerably which makes it hard at times to remain competitive with non-government institutions.

Pros

Working with the some of the smartest scientists and clinicians in the world. So many learning opportunities. Kind patients. Allowed time to care for patients as there is no pressure of quotas by health insurance.

Cons

Nursing management can be verbally abusive with frequent retaliation and intimidation. As most older nurses have worked there for most of their career, they are dismissive of new perspectives and resistant to evidence-based practice.
