Pros

Very supportive community. Generally a good environment to work where a strong work ethic is valued. You don't need to "be seen" putting in long hours in the office per se. Instead it is more important that you produce high quality work in a timely fashion. This allows for a certain degree of flexibility that allows one to benefit from their own self discipline.

Cons

Must stay self motivated as there isn't someone there to pay you on your back after every big achievement. Also, money comes and goes with the state budget. Some years can be tight and some plentiful.

Pros

GT allows undergraduate students to work, you can be a TA, and the first semester you will get credit but the other semesters you'll be paid between 8 - 10 dollars per hour working. It's ok work, not that impressive really. You have to submit a weekly timesheet.

Cons

If you are an undergraduate researcher you only get paid about $8 - $10 hour.

Pros

It has great facilities to do research. Students are also very good in general, especially the graduate students. The student body and also the staff is quite diverse. And off course the weather is great. Snow is rare, so you do not have to clean your car every winter. The institute supports greatly student and staff travel. The reimbursement is at par with the professor level even for graduate student. That is quite generous. No need of receipts for meals etc.

Cons

Some of the support stuff are incompetent. The institute is not very student fiendly. It is more friendly to the institute employee.
