Pros
comprehensive benefits package are great! people are very friendly. i stayed in a lab that has continuous funding, so I was pretty secured until I had another offer in the biotech industry. i love going to Westwood Village for lunch or happy hour. it's got an inclusive college town vibe, yet it's so close to Santa Monica or West Hollywood where we can go for some more play time. makes me forget all the bad traffic i have to go through everyday.
Cons
traffic sucks all-year long, plus staffs don't get free parking space. monthly costs ~$60, and continues to increase every year. low pay to start with, but it increases each year by unions and based on funding of the PI.
