Pros

Prestige, prestige, prestige, location (if you like winter), lots of intelligent people, lots of great talks and dinners, and the students, undergraduates and gradutes, are wonderful.

Cons

Terrible management, terrible decision-making, terrible money management, completely demoralizing, people are unappreciated, work very, very hard with no recognition, all are treated poorly except faculty. The place is saturated with arrogant people who have little compassion for non-tenured people.
