Pros

Top-notch research going on, if you are looking to be a top-notch researcher it's one of the best places in southern california. There is a new push on campus to help STEM graduate students with alternative career choices, but help is fairly thin on career planning front (unless of course you want to be a top-notch researcher).

Cons

Graduate student culture is nonexistent. Performing work for research mentor is more important than personal education.
