      Pros

      Great benefits, support the advancement of science and the people working to solve the problems of the world

      Cons

      The science may be cutting edge, but the operations is back in the 70's. Fiefdoms are everywhere including HR. Some senior managers rule by fear and spying. Whatever you do, don't ask questions. People who thrive here will stay for 30 years (or already have).

      Pros

      Beautiful location, you oversee the Bay, Golden Gate Bridge and SF. Research environment, great bridge for academics to transition to a more applied research. Benefits quite good

      Cons

      Low wages, especially in the scientific staff. Basically no career progression. Offices are a mixed bags (some departments have brand new buildings, others have very old buildings). Do not rely on their immigration services to get anything beyond temporary work visas.
