Pros

MIT is a great place to work; people are all around top-notch, work hard mentality but also a lot of freedom. We get a lot of vacation, and I even get $5,000+ a year to spend on tuition which I use at Harvard Extension School. I also took a bioengineering class through MIT's Advanced Study Program for free. There's always some sort of education/social event going on (free food!). They also subsidize your T pass over 50%, so my commute costs me only $35/month.

Cons

Only thing is that the pay is pretty low. Other than that I can't think of any cons.
