Pros

During the recession there is definitely a sense of security. The benefits are excellent for my family. I have great coworkers and boss.

Cons

At times excessively bureaucratic. There can be unexpected and sweeping changes to day to day things from far above. But overall it is not that bad to deal with, everyone gets taken care of in the end.

Pros

You work with experts from every field possible in science from Mechanobiology to Metallurgy and working as a ML intern along with scientists from different fields gave me a lot of exposure and how to work in a research department.

Cons

One challenge encountered was maintaining a clear focus on training objectives, as the evolving parameters required continuous reassessment of the model's learning priorities. Additionally, the absence of established ground truth for the domain presented a limitation in validating and guiding the approach effectively.
