Pros

Great work experience Valuable work Great benefits.

Cons

PIs are very particular and have little regard for their budgets. Once had a Researcher who, upon me telling them that they could not hire more people, proceeded to hire more people and thus ran out of budgeted funds 6 months early. When they all had to be let go, he sent out a mass email explaining that I was the one who got them fired. Massive headaches and little accountability.

Pros

Job security throughout budget cuts happening in the public health industry currently. Plenty of PTO and holiday paid leave.

Cons

Constant threats by upper management to "write us up/disciplinary action" for anything. Director is really unfair/disrespectful/condescending to our supervisor and so that trickles down to data coordinators. For example currently there is a threat that we will be "written up" if we do not meet all the competing deadlines. Ive seen sooo people many come and go in this sector over the past 3 years its insane. Its alot of data to manually enter and one must be organized /driven and on top of your game but it gets borring if your not passionate about the cancer trials you are working on.
