Pros

The professors I work for are very knowledgeable and organized. I enjoy the research I do and teaching students in lab classes. The career services at Rutgers are also very nice and helpful.

Cons

I am personally not a fan of the location. New Brunswick is a town dominated by undergraduates, a lot of whom love to drink and party. Also, many of the students are not very motivated to learn, which can make teaching them difficult and tiresome.
