Pros

This is a great place to work as an engineer if you enjoy working on interesting problems and contributing to science.

Cons

Things are set up such that people lead projects based on science accomplishments and not based on project management skills. Funding agencies don't seem to understand how to fund sustainable software

Nowhere to eat

Pros

I worked on Potter St. as a Student Assistant. Hours were flexible, very nice building in general. Good pay, hourly rate is definitely something to work with as a student.

Cons

Absolutely nowhere to eat at all. Be prepared to eat and bring sack lunches...every day. Or else you will have to go to the hot dog stand man and the taco truck daily like I did.
