- leemailll 9y agoJanelia farm sets its rule to make small labs from the beginning, and postdocs there get better pay and welfare, ie more money for each headcount. However they recently just downgraded some part of the welfare for postdocs. Also they kind of push for high impact papers, combined with they don't have a graduate school, they are more inclined to be small labs. But I also heard some people find ways to circumvent such limitation.
