Pros

There is absolutely nothing- no wait, it is not far from L.A. And San Diego

Cons

Business TA's are really exploited. Discussion sections in business are twice the size of discussion sections in any other part of the university. Worse, graduate classes in business for which you pay an extra $ 20k per year are huge compared to all other graduate classes on campus where the students don't pay extra. The building stinks. Faculty are worthless and the good ones keep leaving. Stay far away.

Great institution serving a diverse student population. Plenty of interesting research labs. Decent benefits.

Commuter school so traffic and parking can be terrible. Select your PI wisely, and ensure healthy work life balance.
