Vantaggi

Great opportunity for those who are truly early career professionals. Excellent way to experience federal-level research immediately out of school or while still completing a degree.

Svantaggi

Not a great fit for those with lots of previous job experience. This is not a job, and what you get to do depends heavily on who your supervisor is. The Trump-era tax reform makes what would be a healthy monthly stipend paltry because fellows now have to pay federal income tax. This is a really crummy deal financially because fellows are not actually employees and do not qualify for benefits like retirement, accrued leave, FMLA, and HSA/FSA. Fellows finally were provided dental and vision benefits for the first time in late 2020.
