Pros

The people at the lab are nice people to work with. Leaders are friendly and helpful, and can help with obtaining grants and/or fellowships. The lab has a great location in south campus, right past the life science building. Not too far from dorms, is easily within walking distance. Plenty of food options nearby. Good starting place to build connections and meet people that can later help with references. Labs and surrounding area are always clean. Students can have working hours scheduled around their courses.

Cons

Work can get sort of repetitive, but as long as you're working on an exciting project it should be okay.
