      Pros

      - Lots of great people - Lots of benefits - Room to grow (if you're willing to try new things) - Interacting with students is great

      Cons

      - Very political - It takes things a long time to get done because of how slow some departments are. - You can only really move in the company if you're willing to leave departments.

      Pros

      Decent Benefits, Nice Amounts of Time off

      Cons

      Staff are the lowest of the totem pole and you KNOW it. Pay not enough to live by yourself as a working adult in State College Area. Will waste your time if there's nothing to do by requiring you to sit there while faculty and admin get to "work from home" (they really don't) President Benepudi will probably give herself 2 more $1.5 million pay increases while you work there unable to afford a simple apartment by yourself.
