Pros

Leaders in the cancer field give talks here on the regular. The facilities available are nice, the gym is great. Lots of food options and starbucks everywhere.

Cons

ADMINISTRATORS, MANAGEMENT, ANYONE IN A LEADERSHIP POSITION. Seriously, if you are not coming in as faculty, these people will choose one small part of what you are capable of doing and make you do that all day every day ad nauseam. The administrators are bullies and will check on where you are every hour on the hour. I've seen an admin assistant picked on (someone would flip the orientation of her screen around on her computer if she stepped away, other admins would purposely not give her documents she needed to complete her work). Don't ask questions, don't give your opinion. If you do, the admins will target you in particular for some very harsh treatment. If you ask, in writing, if XYZ bullying behavior is policy or if one person in particular is out of line, administrators will avoid putting anything in writing...and you will be talked to by your boss for wanting it in writing. And I am not low man on the totem pole. I have PhD. Just saying. Worst place I have ever worked in my life. I mean, when I was young I cleaned offices. I worked service positions. THIS IS STILL THE MOST HORRIBLE WORK EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD.
