Pros
I'm working here part time while I'm attending the nearby university. It's a diverse environment with PIs, post docs, students, and international users. I don't know much in the terms of funding and other doctoral concerns, but I know that the lab is much better funded than the ones down on campus. The floor I work in has a great dynamic and no drama. Even though I'm a undergraduate student, I feel like I have a lot of control but also mentoring when I need it.
Cons
I can only work on the weekdays for when the shuttle is available. I work a varied amount of hours a week for units for school, but they often expect more than the promised hours. By this point, it's a given that you'll spend 3-4 hours more a week than stated. Also, pay is only available in the summer.
