Pros

University setting with lots of very interesting professors and students to work with. I loved the interdisciplinary feel of the departments which means you encounter very open thinkers.

Cons

Sometime you have to deal with big egos and students who feel entitled. Can be a difficult place to work if you have a family but they are getting better.

Pros

Great work life balance at emory university. A wealth of resources are also available. People are friendly.

Cons

Limited career opportunities probably because people don't leave once they get settled in their role. More turnover might be beneficial for Emory and it's employees.

Pros

They offer rather decent health benefits. Additionally, the environment is wonderful, and there is a real rapport amongst coworkers. Employees also get access to the wonderful facilities that the campus has to offer, such as the main library and the gym.

Cons

I have noticed that the employees that work in maintenance and in the food service departments do not seem to receive as much immediate consideration either from students or administration. Applying to work at the University is a long process as HR is very slow-moving.
