Pros

Supervisors are very accomodating for schoolwork You choose how hard you make your workload The position is sometimes regarded with respect

Cons

Doesn't really help as resume fodder for a technical person Much of the management culture is simply out of touch with Tech culture

Pros

You can take Georgia Tech classes for free and establish a relationship with professors if you plan on going to grad school.

Cons

The pay is terrible. You can be a lab tech making $11 per hour. Also you are usually working for un tenured professors who typically treat their students poorly.

Pros

I'm very lucky to have a great job in my research area that supports me in my personal research as well as in advancing their aims; not all grad assistants are so lucky. I love my work and I'm quite happy with most of it. My job is somewhat flexible but I do have to put in desk time; I get the sense that I am in the minority of grad students on this.

Cons

As a student who also works you will work VERY hard. There are almost no "easy" assistantships here as some schools have. Also you work 13 hours a week plus take 3 very hard classes. In many ways it's easier to take 4 classes if you can afford it. We are also underpaid compared to many assistantships.
