Pros

Involved in scientific research, bench top, with scientists and professors who are driven in their fields. It can be inspiring and educational to work with such people depending on your career goals.

Cons

Pay is insulting, demoralizing and below what one needs to live in Richmond. VCU is a terrible employer
