Pros

Great research culture with lots of opportunities for collaborative projects. Lab environment depends a lot on the PI that runs the lab, but most at UCLA seem reasonable and likable.

Cons

Horrible traffic, compounded by the constant construction near campus. High rent and low wages lead to difficult financial situations.

Working with students is satisfying and fulfilling. It also helps yourself retain information you have learned from past courses.

Cons

The Peer Learning Unit is poorly managed, and it is difficult to communicate with your supervisors.
