      Pros

      Not many. A few good people.

      Cons

      Work they do for government is waste of taxpayer money. Vision of Founder is self-interest. Leadership style among worst of my experience

      Of course, it's disappointing to receive this type of feedback, as it appears your decade at our firm did not play out as you might've hoped. Our team takes that to heart and will strive to help others who are here (or choose to join the firm) to find the support, development opportunities, and camaraderie that they seek throughout a professional research career. Hopefully, you can still take advantage of the skills and experience you developed while here. Good luck to you!

      Pros

      - The work is intellectually engaging and gave me many chances to grow technically. - I learned a lot from talented coworkers and appreciated being part of projects with real-world relevance. - There was also good exposure to translating technical work into clear, usable takeaways.

      Cons

      - The work can be intense and detail-heavy, and deadlines can sometimes feel demanding. - Priorities may shift quickly, which can make it hard to plan ahead. - At times, the volume of revisions and fast pace can be stressful.
