Pros

Chill environment, lots of on-campus resources, great people. The research is fantastic and I feel like I'm getting a really good education here.

Cons

They. Always. Mess. Up. Your. Paycheck. And they spend way too much money making the gym shiny while the offices and labs are literal health hazards. OSHA would like a word.
