Pros

More established company with solid revenue for a start up. Managers and scientists are paid (relatively) equally so that managers are only managing because they like that type of work, rather than trying to climb the corporate ladder. Has a clear model for their work.

Cons

Could be better at fostering workplace community especially with new hires.
