Pros

Working in the chemistry/physics field, the environment here is highly collaborative with access to a great range of valuable equipment. Salaries highly vary.

Cons

Ability is very dependent on the group you join. Your advisor may be completely inadequate to handle the responsibilities. Procuring items or dealing the the bureaucratic side very painstaking.

Pros

My job with the Columbia Population Research Center is fully remote, which is a great perk. I can also create my own schedule and work any day of the week.

Cons

The pay could be better.

Pros

The work when I had it was amazing, I really appreciated it for what it gave me.

Cons

Unfortunately, with the change in management came zero transparency and rules for thee, not for me. It's led to really weird decisions.
