Pros

Real life experience, real responsibility, awesome culture, the best people

Cons

technically a "non-paid" internship, which is a bummer for the amount of work done - but then again it is so worth it and you get "paid" through multiple other facets.

Pros

Beautiful campus, friendly and mentally stimulating work environment. Excellent professional "culture" and ideals. Good opportunities for personal, academic and professional development. Great name recognition. Good (if not great) employee benefits.

Cons

Salaries aren't great. Exceptionally slow bureaucracy. Workplace is very segmented and silos can be hard to coordinate across.

Pros

Very friendly faculty members and high profile research projects

Cons

Very limited flexibility to design and conduct your research projects, since the principal investigator as a control freak wants you do everything as she thinks is right, without considering your opinions.
