Pros
Place for the smartest people on earth -- at least that was what the lab claims and thinks
Cons
"Our offer acceptance rates, turnover, and retention rates are exceptionally high for our type of work. This would seem to be contradictory to your perception of a revolving door. In general we seek to hire staff who are well prepared to deal with the challenging work performed at the Laboratory and we equip them for success." 4/11/16 comment to Laddering on 4/7/16 Contradiction: No! Hiring rate (etc.) does not mean a lot. If you honestly inform your candidates about your laddering system (e.g., the newest candidates will begin at the bottom of the list and work their way up; We will break up and bring out the best of you) before they make the decision to join. Your hiring rate will dwindle to zero soon. Further, please do not patronize us with your arrogant statement such as "We equip you for success." I know that you had to say the formal things like that to firm up your position. But we all know that it has no meaning at all.
