      Pros

      gorgeous campus and art, at times smart colleagues,

      Cons

      extremely bureaucratic, at times fairly incompetent colleagues, senior management totally lost, short term vision, people in commercial acting in a completely hectic fashion mostly to hide they do quite little, and these days NO budget at all, even at global level. the company is paralyzed these days (no travel, no conference, no externals, no new vendors...)

      Pros

      Pays pretty well in comparison to similar jobs in the market

      Cons

      Unstable schedule where you are often asked to come in overnight (1-2 am) regardless of if you have worked the previous day or are off. Basically feels like you're permanently on-call to conduct environmental monitoring. Training is slow. The Micro dept in general is currently understaffed. The job also involves lab work once you are done with your daily environmental monitoring tasks. The work never ceases and the Technicians as a whole has several responsibilities. Promotions seem to come very slowly here.
