Pros

This is a good engineering school. Large campus with critical mass in many disciplines. Good quality of life with short commutes and many outdoors opportunities. Compensation and benefits are good.

Cons

The town is very small and very far from anything that looks like a city. Travel often is nightmare with long drives or poor airline connections.
