Pros

The best is colleagues and students you meet along the way. Friendly graduate student culture and a diverse group of students.

Cons

The salary could cover the stay in any of the nearby facilities without a roommate or two. Also, graduate student researchers are the main driving force of the research but are paid at the minimum livable wage. Furthermore, the professors that recruit them expect 10 - 12 hour workdays.
