Pros

Prestige, connections to other researchers

Cons

Core facilities not up to other institutions. HR extremely unorganized, I didn't get paid for 4 weeks, no benefits enrollment until 1 month. Ethical conduct in research training is severely lacking. Poor morale among a lot of post docs. Buildings are not even adequate, our floor has been 96 degrees some days due to a malfunctioning AC system. Apparently a problem for 3 years.
