Pros

- International environment - Salary - A lot of young people, many eager to give their best. - You have a lot to say in your team, your role, how you want to work... You are given a lot of responsability

Cons

- Very team dependant: The experience can vary greatly depending on the team, more specifically boss, that you have. - Lack of organization inside teams. Results highly dependant on individual talent. - Sometimes there are too many people coming and going (trainees, fellows), a lot of talent lost.

Pros

The employment process is very smooth and supportive. The technical team interviewed me for technical skills, and the HR is very supportive and helpful. Especially I haven't been employed by CERN previously, so I have a lot of questions. The employment team is very helpful and answered all my questions patiently. Also I like the job and my work very much.

Cons

Maybe the primary communication method could be email instead of phone calls? I sometimes miss phone calls, but will check every email.
