A struggling higher education institution with significant need for reform.
Pros
Formerly there were very good benefits associated with employment. Tuition remission for children helps off set the cost of attending the university. Very broad and diverse work environment
Cons
There is a significant disconnect between those working with the students and those in the upper administration. Typically the upper administration follow political guided back scratching over putting the students first. Office buildings are worn and show significant aging. My former building the wall paper was peeling off and anytime one bumped up against a wall they would come away covered in powder. Additionally do to misalignment of budgets many employees are being stuck with decreasing benefits while salaries of the upper administration continue to rise. There are constant salary freezes and minimal compensation when contract issues are resolved.
