Business Outlook
Pros
Caltech is full of really smart motivated people. The campus is beautiful. It is small enough that you won't be anonymous and you can easily end up collaborating across departments and interacting with people outside of your field.
Cons
If you are a young single graduate student, you might find the gender ratio and small size socially frustrating. If you decide things aren't working out with the professor you came to work with, the institute is small enough that there might not be someone else working in your area of interest
