Pros

Flexibility and opportunity. GMU gives employees a lot of leeway to expand, grow and develop their position. Because it's a newer university, it isn't guided by old traditions that create needless restrictions as some older universities.

Cons

GMU is a mid-level public university. It does not yet have the prestige of a top-tier or even public flag-ship university, which can make it difficult to build connections outside the college and acquire funding for projects.
