Pros

There is ample opportunity to work directly with department supervisors and be given a great deal of responsibility in your job, regardless of whether you're working in a lab or a theater. It also looks like they're doing a better job paying decent wages relative to rest of the industry in Chicagoland.

Cons

Sometimes the people that make decisions are not your direct supervisor or even remotely familiar with the department in which you work, which can lead to frustration and higher turnover. (When I worked there for $9.50/hr(when I started) to 10.50/hr(when I left), the rest of the industry was paying at least $13/hr for identical positions).
