Pros

It's a great environment, with smart students and great opportunities for interdisciplinary research (among others). Also allows for a lot of flexibility with both work and work time - though the final say is at your PI's hands.

Cons

Your experience will widely depend on the departments / colleagues/ advisor (when applicable). Some departments and groups can be quite political.
