      Pros

      The people at AgResearch are wonderful, with excellent communication between different groups. Research is innovative and the summer research position for students is an excellent opportunity and introduction to the scientific industry.

      Cons

      Compensation is not as high as other crown research institutes. Drastic staff reduction in late 2015 due to administrative mismanagement.
