Pros: Very team-dependent. My manager was a great scientist and person, so I had great mentorship and a great work environment.
Very flexible in terms of how theoretical or applied, research or engineering-focused your work would be.
Cons: Some fresh hires from the Residency were laid off during the big purge in 2022.
Company priorities shifted, and now pure research has taken a bit of a backseat.
