Pros
It's a nice campus in the arts districts of St. Louis. Students are generally polite and bright. Fellow faculty are fairly collegial.
Cons
Salaries and benefits are not good. I don't know who posted salaries in the six-figures for associate professors, but the average posted on Glassdoor is more than twice what I make. The university recently cut my spouse's ability to be included on our health insurance plan, essentially cutting my compensation by another $5000/yr. Maybe faculty at the medical school skew the average, but everyone I know at this university is absurdly underpaid, and pretty much anyone who can leave, does.
