Pros

Excellent working condition, with good salaries and good work-life balance. You meet people from Europe and from other countries. Most of people you meet are talented, with an open mind, so you have the chance to establish good relationships.

Cons

A bubble. Most of the scientific research is carried out without a focus, since there are few chances to get a permanent position and even if you get it you will e a manager more than a researcher. If you are a young researcher, stay away from this place as it might be a dead end path for your career, if you don't get a permanent position. The working environment is stressful and there is a lot of internal competition despite the high level of salaries at every career stage.
