friendly and super smart colleagues, crucial crop science research covered, excellent facilities, amazing people, and general infrastructure, decent pay, excellent social life

Long term job security is inconsistent (has been great for me but occasionally erratic short contracts for other colleagues), Research payscale lags behind industrial/commercial options, career progression slow

Our contracts are based on funding available so unfortunately some of our positions are on a short-term contract due to financial constrictions. Rothamsted Research is a not for profit charity and therefore we need to ensure that our pay scales reflect this.
