Pros

Great benefits ranging from city bike share membership, free food, health insurance, 401K.

Cons

Building (Dewey) didn't have swipe-in access and due to open-access, personal laptop was stolen from workspace. MIT higher-ups were not helpful in helping to resolve this/ make any changes for safety moving forward, even though others have had similar experiences in the past.
