      Pros

      Great place to do serious multi-disciplinary research. Excellent facilities, renowned faculty and competent technical staff. People all around are willing to help acheive your research goals.

      Cons

      People take long vacations or out of office for extended period of time. I have seen people leave as early as 3.30 pm! Too many rules and regulations to follow while doing research. Parking rules are outrageous .

      Pros

      Decent Benefits, Nice Amounts of Time off

      Cons

      Staff are the lowest of the totem pole and you KNOW it. Pay not enough to live by yourself as a working adult in State College Area. Will waste your time if there's nothing to do by requiring you to sit there while faculty and admin get to "work from home" (they really don't) President Benepudi will probably give herself 2 more $1.5 million pay increases while you work there unable to afford a simple apartment by yourself.
