Avantages

The number of other extremely skilled and knowledgeable researchers at Berkeley Lab is a huge asset for collaboration, learning and productivity.

Inconvénients

The bureaucracy, both through the UC system management and federal rules, is thick. During the pandemic, the UC system initially threatened that anyone working remotely from abroad after January 1, 2021 would be considered as voluntarily resigning their job, apparently for tax reasons. Of course, the first email of the year from the lab director had the subject line "Your Safety Is Our Top Priority". Apparently bureaucratic considerations were slightly higher on the priority list.
