Pros

During good economic times graduate students are very well supported financially with teaching assignments throughout the calendar year, full tuition paid, and complete health insurance provided.

Cons

There is very little policing of other teaching assistants. Some of them can do a very poor job which results in a negative view of teaching assistants at the university. Budget cuts can result in very quick layoffs with little advance warning, leaving teaching assistants high and dry.
