Pros

Harvard is a great place to work. Superior benefits, supportive work environment and many opportunities for cultural enrichment on campus!

Cons

There really are not any cons here except for low salaries. There is ample opportunity to move around if the current position is not quite the right fit.

Pros

A PhD is always very advisor/PI dependent, but I had a great experience with room to learn, grow, and explore interesting research questions. As with any PhD program you’ll work pretty hard for relatively lower pay and perhaps less directly applicable industry career trajectory at the end, but if you find good people to tackle the journey with and get to work on interesting problems I personally think the journey is worthwhile!

Cons

Less of a program wide cohort in my particular engineering field. Some funding challenges with the govt last year but seem mostly back now, apart from the recent administration issues funding wasn’t generally a challenge
