Pros

Lots of exciting science happening on campus. The career center here is top-notch. Lots of high-caliber speakers from academia and industry speaking about topics ranging from science to career development.

Cons

Things can be a bit decentralized. You have to find your way to get noticed about upcoming seminars. If you are a student or postdoc, make sure you register with the excellent career center to get info about their events.

Pros

The weather at best. I can't say much more. It is a great place to go if you are a sociopath that wants to make a lot of money and meet fellow Patrick Bateman types.

Cons

A toxic working environment. Situated in a very difficult to navigate suburban environment. Very little social life for young students and professionals. Very little soul. People here are self, rather than group oriented. Corruption is rampant, especially among the professors; famously this even includes our former president.
