Pros

Interesting work, well-respected company. Most coworkers are highly intelligent and easy to talk to. Managers are approachable, offering flexible work hours. Sometimes allowed to work from home, although that depends on the manager.

Cons

Low salary compared to the competition. The Markham lab is located in a very expensive/unaffordable area, forcing me to have a very long commute.

Advice to Management

Consider opening locations in smaller towns where the cost of living is more reasonable.
