      Pros

      Very flexible work hours, depending on the professor. Very laid back environment, steady income, not nearly as much pressure as in industry.

      Cons

      Work hours actually vary from 5 hours a week to upwards of 80 hours a week. Professors sometimes forget you're actually there to go to school!
