Pros

It is a great environment, everybody knows everybody and is an easy going place. Love my work at Penn State

Cons

I don't really think there are any cons, but I would have to say sometimes being afraid if your boss.

Pros

I found that Penn State offered employees a very flexible schedule, simple and easy ways to advance your position, and the payment was satisfactory.

Cons

My employers at Penn State were not understanding when it came to balancing work life/non-work life. I went on a leave of absence due to medical reasons and my excused absences were not "valid" apparently.
