Pros

Purdue is a great place to work. There is world-class interdisciplinary research and a great collaborative environment, and everyone is very friendly. Cost of living is low and the town is safe and family-friendly.

Cons

The parking situation is less than ideal. Also not a whole lot to do in town, but Chicago and Indy are near-by for weekend getaways.

Pros

Purdue University is a great place to do your post-doctoral training. There are various opportunities for collaboration with different departments. Of course a lot depends on your direct supervisor.

Cons

Its a small college town which means there aren't many venues for recreation outside of the university clubs and activities. Not having an airport makes it a hassle to travel sometimes.
