        Pros

        High quality research and excellent facilities. UHN attracts the best researchers and guest speakers. It has a good track record of successful research. The pay is similar to other institutes. There are many training opportunities to develop your skills while there.

        Cons

        There is a lot of unnecessary administration and it is not the most sociable work environment. Many of the PI's are difficult to work for so check with current staff.

            Pros

            Really good environment to work in cause the equipment is all state-of-the art. Everyone who works here are all dedicated.

            Cons

            As a researcher, we never got paid overtime. There would be a lot of times where I have worked more than 8 hours a day, but I only get paid for the 8 that I am supposed to be working.

                      Based on your experience, what preceded the job offer email: have you received that relatively fast, or you’ve been waiting in silence? For how long?

                      Underwriter

                      Had an interview today and at the end recruiter asked if I was interviewing with another company I was honest and said yes I currently have an offer already with another company. Should I have said that? Worried it may hurt my chances with the interview process going forward.

                      Many people are getting ghosted during the interview process these days so I started https://ghosts.fyi to track companies that regularly ghost. Let me know if you could see this being helpful during your job search!
