Pros

Wonderfully diverse student body in so many ways:race, ethnicity, class, religion etc. well resourced technologically and lots of opportunities within university for career growth.

Cons

Very centralized administratively — ie faculty voice in governance is weak. Though this depends largely on one’s department or school and it’s particular leadership. Also RU New Brunswick is very spread out geographically and in that sense, it lacks a center, a “heart” to the campus and to student and faculty life. This undermines the always elusive quality of RU being a true “community”.

Pros

co-workers are super nice, friendly and collaborative. Good flexibility in work arrangements. My immediate boss is nice.

Cons

Morale is quite low, and turnover is high. We are losing good people and goals are not being met. Senior Leader tell us to do more with less, and do not want constructive feedback. They don't lead by example, taking elaborate trips instead of being present and supporting staff. Rules don't apply to them. So disappointing, not what you would expect from a public university.
