Pros

I was lucky to work with a great professor and did my phd dissertation with him. Supported by the research assistantship, I was not required to work on other research projects but my thesis. The health insurance plan given for the graduate assistants was very good. The spouses and children were covered too. Parking is free for research assistants. You can take courses up to 6 credits in the summer for free, as a benefit for a 9 month RA.

Cons

The phone services were canceled, which was kind of inconvenient. Other than that, I enjoyed the graduate study there. The RAship is comparable to other universities nearby.

Pros

Great bosses, friendly environment, you can study while you work, be around knowledge, everyone is helpful, meet interesting people. The hours were flexible and built around my schedule, and I always got time off when I needed it. Working during final netted me plenty of extra cash. You'll feel like it's home.

Cons

Mediocre pay, no benefits as a student worker
