Pros

CERN is a great place to be at. I participated in many interesting talks. All of my colleagues were very open and friendly, it was very easy to meet people. CERN clubs are a great way to develop a hobby.

Cons

Work can feel a bit disorganised. Depending on the team you get to, you may need to work with really old technology.

Pros

The employment process is very smooth and supportive. The technical team interviewed me for technical skills, and the HR is very supportive and helpful. Especially I haven't been employed by CERN previously, so I have a lot of questions. The employment team is very helpful and answered all my questions patiently. Also I like the job and my work very much.

Cons

Maybe the primary communication method could be email instead of phone calls? I sometimes miss phone calls, but will check every email.
