Pros
Interesting work Impressive technology Knowledgeable and friendly peers Pre-COVID: Nice campus
Cons
The Sanger Institute is for scientists, by scientists; everything else is secondary. This is not an unreasonable position to take, but the lack of appreciation does grind on you over the years. Researchers and faculty tend to be very grateful, but the chain of management (again, mostly scientists) doesn't really care in my opinion. We're fungible.

None really, enjoyed my experiance
- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Excellent facilities Good collaboration opportunities Excellent scientific environment
Cons
Postdocs's salaries are not great. A lot of salary bands which start very low. Given that most contracts are 3 years, it is impossible to reach the top bands Good Nursery on site but very expensive (pre covid) Not many good financial benefits for postdocs especially if you compare to postdocs at the EBI onsite.

Free bus, very laid back. Very diverse.
Cons
Work hard, get results = no reward, no advancement. Not a result driven organization. Some teams you slave away for nothing. Salaries could be better. You either are a postdoc, treated like a postdoc (expected to leave), or if you are one of the non-academic staff, perhaps chase a middle management role that doesn't exists, no career progression.
