Pros

Friendly but professional environment. Opportunity to work with diverse group of people. Can work on many different project, as well as focused on a single topic depending on personal interest.

Cons

Sometimes due to bureaucracy, it can take some time to get the work done. However, this is expected for any other academic institutions compared to industry.
