Pros

The university community is nice, as are faculty

Cons

The pre-award system for submitting grants is a byzantine nightmare that adds numerous levels of complexity in addition to the need to comply with federal requirements. Research administrators therefore spend a great deal of time dealing with internal bureaucracy instead of providing the support that will help grow research, benefit faculty, etc.
