Pros

Very generous benefits, including the UC retirement plan. The environment and culture are also great. A lot of attention to safety. The level of the research is generally high.

Cons

There is no daycare on site. Considering the size of the lab it would be a valid addition to the facility. Funding issues can put a lot of pressure on the staff.
