      Pros

      Extremely collegial - lots of chances to gain mentorship experience Motivated workforce - if you are interested in working hard, you will not be alone Excellent campus - Ithaca is one of the best college campuses in USA. It has continually been voted the best college town, two years in a row

      Cons

      Winter - Extremely long and cold - but if you survive the first one you will get through the next 3 or 4. Also you will realize how much weather effects our professional psyche Location - While it has an amazing campus, its still far away from big cities and therefore attending professional events is a slight challenge.

      Pros

      Have had my ups and downs with management, but overall a respectful and professional place.

      Cons

      Most processes are antiquated, and change has yet to come. Some departments still work in a mode that does not realize the student comes first. A new direction is needed.
