Pros

Free tuition, acquire on-the-job experience for those hoping to become full-time faculty at a college or university

Cons

The stipend doesn't keep up with the cost of living in the DMV. The health insurance is awful. If you need additional medical services outside of what the on-campus student health services charge, Aetna covers VERY LITTLE.
