Pros

>Very generous PTO and holidays, I love having a free weeklong vacation each Christmas >Administration is very open to remote work >I’ve found a department with a very healthy and fun culture; I’ve never worked with nicer people >I feel supported by my direct supervisors >Nice perks like free campus parking, free entry to some sport events, can use the gym, robust wellness program >Employee appreciation events are fairly frequent >Tuition remission is great if you have children planning to attend the university >Many jobs do not require masters degree

Choose Research Advisor Very Carefully

Graduate research assistant, me

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great research resources and facilities Great pay

Cons

Research is pushed too heavily, many new professors are not good and only care about research. Ironically those professors don't help with your research, only put more pressure on you to produce results for their lab. Very stressful with little care for your own growth and learning as a student. Your experience can vary drastically depending on your choice of a research advisor.
