Pros

* Work with smart people. * Free food * Pittsburgh office has great site culture.

Cons

* Experience varies wildly by PA * A bit of cultural friction if you've ever personally had to live paycheck to paycheck * Very little mobility (few and narrow windows of opportunity) if you're unable to relocate to a different site. This has consequences if you have family and/or outside responsibilities.
