Pros
It's a great place to work and live. Depending on your status as a researcher your sponsoring department/institute should provide you with housing that is very nice and relatively inexpensive. The benefits package is also really nice with regards to the out-of-pocket cost of health insurance, especially in comparison to other comparable schools.
Cons
The standards for work ethic are set very high and you might not have a lot of freedom to enjoy your life and family. There is no retirement compensation for post-docs.
