Pros

coworkers are hardworking and committed to their work. Leaders have high standards for themselves and for quality of the work. The campus is nicely arranged and everything is within easy waking distance.

Cons

The place is somewhat isolated. 1-2 hours driving to major cities. In winter times, life can be less than easy.

Pros

I really liked working here because they all know that you are there to learn as well as get to know others in your field

Cons

Sometimes there weren't enough hours and it is difficult working with nearly all young adults.

Pros

Exceptional benefits! Opportunity to be part of a "greater good", setting the stage for our leaders, researchers, of tomorrow.

Cons

Exceptionally high workload as University has not maintained adequate staff to work ratio. Upper management has set expectations of full ownership of work; however, have not granted authority to direct work.
