      Pros

      Has a strong orientation to sustainability and commitment to the community

      Cons

      You can easily get stuck with a poor manager; there is no room for 360 degree feedback. If you are paid by a grant, you are likely to get paid way off scale, at a fraction of what the salary scale is for your field.

      Emory has good benefits, connections, and pay but lacks a sense of community and collaboration among departments.

      Pros

      Good benefits, particularly health insurance and a 6% matching of your retirement savings through their 403b plan. Annual reviews for promotion/pay raise eligibility. Friendly and intelligent faculty and staff throughout the University. Paid vacation and sick leave time accrues fairly quickly. This paid time off along with the various free health services offered to employees shows that Emory cares about work life balance. Beautiful campus.

      Cons

      Horrible traffic around area, and expensive parking pass. If you're involved in research, outreach, or some type of work that would benefit collaboration, it's often difficult to get people to look beyond their own work and self interest to collaborate with you, share resources, etc. Departments do not always do a great job of keeping you up to date with what kinds of work others are doing.
