Pros
Working in academia is a great experience. A very laid-back atmosphere where performance is valued. As long as you work your hours, you can generally work them whenever you'd like.
Cons
It is at time an unprofessional work environment. Many of the professors, however intelligent, may not be the best leaders. Once again this comes with the territory.
