Pros

I have had a good experience working at UCR. The department (Biology) I work in has always been very helpful from an administrative standpoint. Also, I have a great postdoctoral advisor (the postdoc experience is primarily dependent on the relationship between the postdoc and postdoctoral advisor).

Cons

I do not know of any postdocs in my department who have had a bad experience. So there are no cons per say.
