Pros

Great access to wonderful facilities and equipment. Environment where collaborations do actually flourish. Some undergrads are quite bright and hard working.

Cons

There is an occasional bureaucratic nightmare to deal with. Lots of forms to fill out and incredible hurdles to getting paid as a graduate student. I still don't understand why it takes five employees, several weeks, and a multitude of forms to set up my employment and get direct deposit going.
