Pros

Fairly willing to pay for grad school and support patent applications. If you get your grad school paid for, it is a pretty good deal even though you are making much less than you would in a job.

Cons

Advisers can take advantage of students. The adviser has all of the power, so if you get a bad adviser, he or she can ruin your career if they don't like you or make you miserable for 5+ years.

Pros

Great team at the Smyrna Office, Specifically ATAS. You have ownership over the process and create the protocols and procedures which felt very empowering. The work environment healthy and you can have a balance in life. The company also is very engineer biased which is fine but that ruins team cohesion at times. Also lord forbid you be a new hire and a project is cancelled well buddy no job for you!!

Cons

The job is not stable as it is dependent on contracts and their extensions, this is the reason why I was unable to go full time. Also due to past negligence a lot of the job is fixing other peoples problems. Also your work day can either be slow or very fast. Also at times it felt you were punished for completing work timely as priorities would change.
