Pros

not much to say besides the reputation, which is good only if you want to stay in science.

Cons

I worked at the institute for four years as a postdoctoral scientist. The institute has a very poor and unhealthy working environment. Full of nepotism, favouritism and politics that a new comer international employee cannot understand. This is reflected in different management levels. After talking to othee peers, I relaized my case is not rare and happens commonly at other groups. If you are qualified international scientist, esp. from Asia, avoid this place.
