      Pros

      Hands-on experience helps you prepare for a career as a professor and researcher. Great people to work for. It pays tuition and monthly stipend. Also covers %90 of a great health insurance plan.

      Cons

      I didn't get any networking help from the faculty in my program. I wish they had/used connections to get me a job post-grad school, because networking is crucial for landing jobs.

      I'd stay forever if they let me

      Pros

      The office I work in is inclusive and promotes a healthy work-life balance. We are encouraged to utilize walking meetings and avoid sitting all day at our desks. We have a family-like feel to the office and everyone collaborates well together. I feel valued and appreciated every day. I love my job, my boss, and our whole office, not to mention the campus. If it were up to me, I'd never leave, but budgets say I have to go.

      Cons

      I know our office is one of the better ones and that some offices are very hard on their employees. Sometimes communication between other offices is difficult. Funding. My position is 1 year, they need someone in my position permanently, as full-time faculty, not just a post-doc, but the budget isn't there. I'd stay but they can't afford to keep me.
