Pros

The department gave me full and autonomous control over the courses that I taught. They have invested in new and modern buildings with great equipment to aid teaching. The supporting staff was great and friendly and very helpful.

Cons

Parking was a nightmare to faculty staff and students alike. My advice is go early if you are teaching a class.

Pros

The school is in a dynamic and exciting location

Cons

The school atmosphere is pretty relaxing, which can also be considered a negative aspect as tenured faculty members are super lazy. Colleagues in my department are alright but they are really old. Well, being old does not mean a bad thing as long as they are motivated to learn and improve teaching skills. Students complain a lot as old faculty members do not even update course materials and cannot even use power point etc.
