Pros

Beautiful campus, excellent students, and many of the faculty are outstanding. Benefits are decent. Flexible work schedule after years of service. Some departments are healthier than others. Very safe neighborhood.

Cons

The administration is toxic from the top down. Sexual harassment is common and men are promoted much more easily than women. Leadership is questionable. Very outdated internal systems both technologically and in human resources. People can be lazy due to strong job security. Sometimes I felt like I was working at the DMV because administrative staff would not help students or other staff members. Very competitive internally. Never have I seen so much dishonesty at work. A lot of CYA and passing the buck. Parking fees are high for staff. Employees are afraid to tell the truth.
