Great experience, little opportunity for growth - Front-end Designer The Field Museum Employee Review

Pros

I worked on very cool projects. The museum attracts a certain type of person that's really smart and dedicated, slightly weird and offbeat, and great to work with. They have excellent health benefits and good work-life balance.

Cons

Always an "all hands on deck" mentality from upper management to excuse not giving yearly raises. Organization is extremely top-heavy with big pay disparities between directors & lower level staff, and few opportunities for advancement for many positions. High employee turnover.
