      Pros

      Mostly flat organizational hierarchies are good despite having corporate like structure. Lots of opportunities to attend exciting research talks.

      Cons

      Horrible experience of actually working there! Full of politics that people (some teams if not all) play to hide their incompetence and for appearance. It's mostly smokes over a little bit of fire that the prestigious institute is able to generate.

      Pros

      * Decent health insurance * Lax expectations * Little-no Weekends/Nights

      Cons

      * Management absolutely sucks. Totally inbred, no fresh faces, no external technical or management experience. * Corruption and fraud in usage of gov't funds. Shoveling money into a few people's pockets while claiming high expenses and public benefit. * Terrible pay for lack of purpose - will find greater purpose and pay working for defense contractor. Don't let the non-profit status fool you.
