Pros

Opportunities for research are great. It is easy for me to get access to the resources I need. Work hours are very flexible, and compensation is fair, with good benefits.

Cons

Little interaction with my immediate supervisor (good and bad, I guess). Location is fairly isolated, with not much to do in town, and a surprisingly high cost of living.
