      Business outlook

      Pros

      Excellent experience, get to engage with first year students and transmit knowledge. Equally excellent salary. EPFL is an Equal opportunities employer, no matter your nationality, you just have to get decent or good grades to get this job.

      Cons

      Sometimes it might take too much time to prepare, and if you don't prepare very well you might end up feeling useless.

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Great environment and plenty of very smart people around you at all times. Also, lots of talks and presentations about exciting topics

      Cons

      Being at an engineering school can sometimes be a bit dull, given the demographics, but then again, if you are at an engineering school you might be the kind of person who thrive there in the first place.
