    There are both pros and cons of industry and academia. Industry has more opportunities in terms of growth and experience employees are paid more in industries whereas in academia the employees have less chance of the growth opportunities. There is more recognition in industry in terms of the work whereas compared to the academia there is less recognition. Industries are more structured and organized. There is less chances for being flexible in industries whereas in academia there is flexibility in terms of the working hours. Industry employees work in team so there is help from the higher authorities whereas in academia the employees work individually. Working in industries is more time constraint whereas in academia there is not much time constraint, so it becomes challenging for the employees working in the industries. I think I would prefer working in industry to gain more experience more knowledge.

    Thank You!
