      Pros

      Good pay, great people: the employees are generally very grateful to be at LBNL and they share that passion with the people around them. Excellent work opportunities: some of the most cutting edge research is performed here, the projects you find yourself involved in are hard to match elsewhere.

      Cons

      Individuals without phd's are not valued much by the organization. The career structure of the lab is targeted towards advanced degrees and it does not provide much room for advancement for those with only a Bachelors degree.

      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.
