Research staff is treated well, administrative staff isn't - Recensione dipendente - Marketing and Communications Coordinator presso MIT

Researchers are in charge of everything, from each center/lab/department. They are not trained to be managers, and many are unlikely to care about retention when it comes to promotions or raises. If you want a raise or a promotion, you have to move to another department, because the researchers and admins at the top won't care to help.
