Pros

This is a nautical campus in Baton Rouge. As this is the state's flagship school, normally a decent caliber of student attends the university

Cons

So many issues....with the state budget, general bad leadership, and an unrealistic view in the university's actual position in the research community

Pros

Benefits covered 90% of my healthcare needs. The time-off and work-from-home policies were flexible and allowed me to meet my military requirements.

Cons

The salary policy did not guarantee advancement for low-level employees. You are guaranteed a merit raise each year, but you cannot receive a salary raise within the same six-month period. If an Unclassified employee reaches the maximum of their pay scale, they will no longer receive a merit raise. A department supervisor must approve any pay scale increase. The appeal process takes longer than most are willing to accept.
