RecommendsI have been working at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Good salary and perks, friendly people excellent work/life balance. They do not run you into the ground. They allow you to explore where you're happiest and may pay for additional education needed.
Cons
Doesn't have the sexiness of Silicon Valley, but real work is done here.
Advice to Management
Focus on the value of the work. Don't try to compete with Silicon Valley on the holy grail du jour, whether "diversity" or other.
