Business Outlook
Pros
Slower pace than a regular police department. A lot of really good officers and good people. For the area, pay is good, just under BWXT. School benefits are great. Command staff lets you do your job.
Cons
More political than a regular police department. A lot more paperwork for silly incidents. Higher-ups in the university with no LE experience make decisions for the department. A decent amount of mandatory overtime but not as much as BWXT
