Pros

Overall, It's been a great experience working in a research lab. The faculty and students are very friendly. There are plenty of opportunities to work closely with faculty on research projects. There are many chances to cross-train in various areas too. Also, the benefits are great and flexible schedules are a plus.

Cons

The pay is low and pay raises don't happen often. Approval process is slow. There aren't many opportunities for advancement if you work in a research lab. Parking is a hassle during the school year, on-campus and off-campus.

Pros

There is absolutely nothing- no wait, it is not far from L.A. And San Diego

Cons

Business TA's are really exploited. Discussion sections in business are twice the size of discussion sections in any other part of the university. Worse, graduate classes in business for which you pay an extra $ 20k per year are huge compared to all other graduate classes on campus where the students don't pay extra. The building stinks. Faculty are worthless and the good ones keep leaving. Stay far away.
