      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working as a research assistant here will help you to get a higher-up job elsewhere due to the name recognition of the institution.

      Cons

      Research assistantship positions are increasingly scarce due to the poor job market, which leads PhD students to remain at the University continuing to conduct research and competing with current students.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Lack of corporate pressure, feeling of contributing to the greater good, great benefits and paid time off, competitive salary, world class research institution looks great on a CV

      Cons

      Potentially difficult to move up within the hierarchy if you do not have a good manager/director. Food options on campus are limited.
