Pros

You will not work as hard as you do in private practice. There is a pension plan, a good self-insurance professional liability program and there are reasonable allowances for CME activity.

Cons

You will be micromanaged and not allowed to advance your career. You will feel like you are constantly being watched and if you stand out in any way you will come under attack. Those who are good at what they do are seen as threats to incompetent leadership and they will be suppressed. Pay is poor in comparison to market rates, especially in surgical disciplines.

Pros

Interesting work and freedom to come and go depending on experiments. Very supportive of DEI. 99% of the people are friendly and helpful.

Cons

Work life can be a nightmare or wonderful depending on your PI. Talk to the staff and get honest feedback before joining a lab. Some labs and departments are very siloed. They do not want to share their equipment or knowledge but have no qualms about using other labs' equipment or asking for help. Very frustrating.
