Pros

Offers some benefits i.e. health insurance and 401K, but not industry leading. Exposed to new science and technologies. Snacks like peanuts in the breakrooms.

Cons

Literally paid peanuts. Job is high stress, long hours, short staffed with management denying to hire any position besides the many positions they are losing due to the exodus of disgruntled employees . Merger with Seagen resulted in a 20% pay cut which has destroyed any chance of homeownership.

Pros

A good amount of remote monitoring, which depending on how you view can be a positive.

Cons

Changing systems and inconsistent standards are applied to people. There are many differing models that often muddy how you are supposed to do your job, especially when other staff members don't quite understand. How do you interface with the changing models? There tends to be a lot of blame and foisting of responsibilities. Sometimes you can become overburdened with a lot of work, where people do not respect your time and think that their tasks should take priority. It is possible to be contacted late at night with work to do and then be criticized the next day for not being able to keep up.
