Pros
Good benefits- good work-life balance
Cons
In my experience West Ed does not recongize or reward good work, only a person's ability to advocate for themselves or fight others to get credit or lead a proposal and bring in money. So, it is not accidental that few senior or even senior reserachers are black, Latinx, indegenous or Asian. I have seen countelss talented BIPOC individuals not get recognized or promoted and eventually leave, while unequalified white individuals that have learned how to advocate for themselves are promoted. I dont think the management is racist, I think they are just so used to the status qou that they can't see how it excludes collaborative people who are not cut-throught, which tend to be many BIPOC.
