Pros

pleasant work environment, flexible schedule, supportive management, opportunity for travel, opportunity for personal and professional growth, a good place to get started in the industry.

Cons

starting salary in this position is low, there are no bonuses, the annual increase is next to nothing (1-2%), traveling takes over your life, submitting expense reports is insanely time consuming, sponsors are constantly trying to cut study budgets.
