Pros
Why work at UCSF? BECAUSE... 1) Benefits and holidays are hard to beat 2) Within reason, UCSF is open to reimbursement for professional development 3) Personal growth and diversity within the position. 4) Awesome networking opportunities 5) Prestigious namesake... who hasn't heard of UCSF?
Cons
Why leave UCSF? BECAUSE... 1) Growth does not equal advancement. 2) Work/life balance can feel at times non-existent 3) Under-appreciation, but perhaps that is a downside of having high standards of excellence. No amount of effort/time is good enough. 4) Overworked and underpaid 5) As a state employee, your salary is public information. Yes, anyone can find out how much you make.
