Pros

Interesting colleagues, work can be challenging and fun. There's lot of cutting edge work going on around campus and access to lectures and other activities is enriching.

Cons

Departments and offices are inconsistently run, depending on your supervisor you can have a great experience or an awful one. There's no attempt to set institutional standards around supervision or performance management. The human resources department doesn't intervene, even when situations become so severe that legal action is involved.

MIT is great - I really enjoy everything about it.

Cons

long hours at times nothing big to report - food on campus is pretty poor, but there are plenty of off-campus options.
