Pros

Benefits, and a really pretty campus.

Cons

They make you pay for parking, and the culture just isn't there. It depends where you are in your departments but for the most part everyone is on the older side and is incredibly out of touch with the real world...think unmarried "cat ladies". You are INCREDIBLY UNDERPAID and have little to no movement for growth. It's a government job where pretty much nothing will get done when you ask someone else to do it. The people are nice but really weird, and you won't be going out to grab a beer with them after work, or want acknowledging their existence out of the workplace. It's okay if you need something to do and don't care about making money, but without a second income life can be pretty tough. The staff is roughly 95% women and the men are only in the technical positions. No real applicable experience which is sad.
