Pros

Good retirement benefits if you can make it 3 years without leaving--I could not. Good vacation time--you will need it.

Cons

In the Fox School of Business there is way too much bureaucracy, very little camaraderie between departments and programs, and how something looks is often more important than how it functions. The top administrators in the college seemed very egotistical and not supportive of the rest of the university. My supervisors were not trained in the area of expertise that I was hired for, were very unsupportive of new ideas and industry standard practices, were very unprofessional in how they dealt with situations that didn't align with the plan in their heads that they didn't bother to share, and very poor at communicating clear goals and expectations. As a whole, very behind in flexible work schedule options as in there are none.

Pros

Beautiful, clean, and conveniently located campus. Great food trucks! Lots of space to go for a walk and clear your head or sit on a bench and look at some trees. Nice benefits.

Cons

Temple is very large and very siloed, so if you work in one department, don't expect to be able to move more easily to another part of the school than you would if you were just a random unknown applicant. Once you start working it will be clear which people there genuinely care about the school and passionately work to make it better, and which once just clock in and clock out and won't do a single thing that's not listed in their official job description. But that's bureaucracy for you!
