      Pros

      Very relaxing atmosphere, great location, everyone is very relaxed always (except when it comes to crunch time). Several opportunities for advancement and great networking options!

      Cons

      Sometimes it's very tough to get through the school's different bureaucracies, and sometimes they are very stingy about enabling money for different operations.
