Pros
- Depending on the lab or department, there are multiple opportunities to learn and grow - Work is interesting and feels meaningful (most of the time) - State benefits
Cons
- Academia breeds big egos and the "I'm more important than you" mentality, it will tear you down if you don't have thick skin - Lab/department specific, but lack of leadership leads to a lot of micromanaging by peers - Workload can be high and limited opportunities for support are supplied (if any)
