Pros

Once given a tenured position, you have job security. The environment is very suitable for individuals who think that research is organized and directed from the top down.

Cons

The hierarchical (army-style) organisation, with top down ''management'' of research means that people who will succeed are those with a sergeant mentality. Also, decisions must never be taken by those involved but from higher up, and reach the staff as orders through the hierarchical route. So much power in this hierarchical systems means that colleagues will happily stab you in the back if it allows them to climb faster.

Pros

A great laboratory where to work, they are very innovative and regularly rank amount the top 3 labs in france.

Cons

their salaries are some times very low and there are very little career perspective. That is one of the reason people tend to come and go.
