Pros

Excellent benefits, Gym access, huge number of club sports. Free tuition to take one class per semester. Minimal paperwork. Constant free food and lectures.

Cons

Boston is cold. Housing in the area is very expensive. There are no real cons other than this one, sorry.

Pros

This is an amazing place to undertake consulting and depending on whom your PI is it can be a very good opportunity.

Cons

Boston/Cambridge is expensive. You need to supplement your income. MIT does not pay well because there is a 50% tax that goes to the MIT bureaucrats. There are probably at least 3 of them controlling what you do who contribute to the overhead expenses. There are a lot of "Queens and Kings" in every department because of poor leadership from the directors, deans and department heads.
