Pros
Direct teammates are nice, many smart people around, good to students
Cons
Ever since the new president came in he's been quickly destroying the special place SDL used to be. A place that did exceptional quality work because of the care and trust the lab gave to it's employees. Scott Hinton's legacy is being destroyed within just a couple of years of his retirement. Now upper management changes lab wide policies wildly on a whim, without consultation or justification. And they don't take questions. Don't trust any promises you're given about working conditions or remote work because they'll be different in a year and different again the year after. They don't care how these things effect their employees lives. A low salary used to be worth the benefits and work life balance but now you're just left with an insulting salary and not much else.
