Pros

The pay is decent for what it is (mostly making copies), and I gained some useful academic experience from lightly editing some papers and articles.

Cons

The hours varied wildly, and I had to self-report to the university to get paid. This characteristic of the pay system has its advantages, but can also add a layer of stress when combined with studies,

Pros

The city of Atlanta is a great place to live and has lots of wonderful events going on. The facilities are definitely one of the best in the southeast along with Georgia Tech and UF.

Cons

The scientific community and atmosphere here is not as good as prestigious northeast or California schools. The pay is OK but much less competitive than northeast. For science major graduates, there isn't much opportunities around, you have to apply jobs in other places. The culture in Atlanta is kinda layback.

Pros

Good benefits, particularly health insurance and a 6% matching of your retirement savings through their 403b plan. Annual reviews for promotion/pay raise eligibility. Friendly and intelligent faculty and staff throughout the University. Paid vacation and sick leave time accrues fairly quickly. This paid time off along with the various free health services offered to employees shows that Emory cares about work life balance. Beautiful campus.

Cons

Horrible traffic around area, and expensive parking pass. If you're involved in research, outreach, or some type of work that would benefit collaboration, it's often difficult to get people to look beyond their own work and self interest to collaborate with you, share resources, etc. Departments do not always do a great job of keeping you up to date with what kinds of work others are doing.
