Pros

Fantastic research resources and culture. Outstanding mentorship from investigators and peers. Healthy fellow-centric culture.

Cons

Flexible remote work is becoming less and less encouraged by the Science Director. It's not ideal for those who flourish in hybrid work settings.

Pros

You don't have to necessarily apply for grants to run your experiments, each lab has a budget and you can spend a lot of money for very ambitious (and expensive) work, if your lab has the funds

Cons

You depend on the government completely. If there is a shutdown, you aren't working. If priorities change, then research priorities change as well...
