Pros

The benefits package is very good. People are passionate about the scientific research they're doing and have a personal mission to advance knowledge around the world. Relaxed atmosphere usually.

Cons

Bureaucracy can be annoying when working with government money or programs. No good commuter options from parts of the area besides cars.
