Pros

Well resourced for research, good vacation and work life balance.

Cons

Pay is poor relative to cost of living (which is horrendous) - they get away with it as they are the only game in town. Equity plan used to be good here but now the grants are minimal and its pointless anyway as there is no growth, nor any in the foreseeable future.
