Avantages

Boston is a nice and calm city. MIT is a very large campus and yes, it's MIT.

Inconvénients

MIT is fully immersed in the academic trend of publish or perish for many research groups. Never witnessed so many meetings where egocentric principal investigators (PI) would just plainly lie about their research outcomes for money or collaborations. But if you're still OK with that, then just go. It's MIT, can't be bad. Please make sure your communication with the PI is fine. There is still good research going on, you just need to find where.

Fantastic work-life balance and lots of freebies. Join the sailing program! They teach you for free!

Got hit by the federal cuts. Not their fault but you would think they'd have better savings

Avantages

High quality core facilities and well resourced labs. Countless brilliant colleagues who can serve as mentors and collaborators

Inconvénients

Students and Postdocs are expensive due to high overhead, so unreasonably high productivity is often expected compared to other institutions. PIs are typically stretched very thin. Most departments/labs are very space limited which makes it harder to do safe and productive research.
