Good working environment But it's NHS gone private so you know what to expect...
Cons
Car park. To get a parking permit it's like begging for alms

Imperial College has great research facilities, laboratories and resources. The work environment is quite pleasant and very collaborative. The graduate school courses and career progress support are excellent

London is expensive on a PhD stipend
