Pros

location in tri-institute area, subsidized housing that is conveniently adjacent to campus, good child day care facility which at one time is very affordable.

Cons

The particular lab environment is not good, constant high pressure, very little advice and guidance from the PI. The PI relies on his old fame and experience but loses his vision to guide his group to achieve further success.
