Experience is dependent upon the lab - Postdoctoral Researcher Howard Hughes Medical Institute Employee Review

This company actually cares for its employees. Pay is equitable. People are wonderful and the work is fulfilling.

The only con is that if you work at a university with an HHMI sponsored lab, it's difficult to adjust. You won't be an employee of that university and access to certain things will be blocked or limited.

You're working on contributing to cutting edge & advanced biomedical research with world leaders.

Compensation is regularly divorced from what your workload and scope of responsibilities looks like, and does not scale accordingly.
