      Pros

      You are paid to do research. They don't care which 80 hours of the week you work.

      Cons

      They expect 80 hours per week of work. Welcome to grad school.

      Pros

      Flexible work schedule but, that depends on who your boss is. Co-workers are ok but talk about each other behind their backs! More of a con but Glassdoor wants more pros added!

      Cons

      No overtime pay. Can only do flex time. Required to take off holidays such as Christmas. This isn’t always bad but if you’re wanting to save time for say a family vacation that could interfere with the time you’ve saved. Not bad either that you don’t have to request this time off and compete with co-workers like you have to do in the corporate world! Not a place if you’re looking to advance or learn alternative skills.
