Pros

Excellent benefits. Amazing resources. Good facilities. The university succeeds when it's people do, so they make sure that their people do.

Cons

Well, it's a post-doc, right? Long hours, high expectations, pay not commensurate with abilities. This is not so much a reflection on Yale specifically, although at the post-doc orientation there was a strong suggestion that one return to work after dinner.

Pros

Great benefits, lots of opportunities, exciting environment

Cons

In academia, where salaries are generally lower than in the corporate sector, there can be a disproportionate amount of arrogance because many people are motivated by prestige and status rather than financial compensation.
