Pros

Take advantage of tuition remission

Cons

LOW PAY, RARE RAISES and like others have stated, there is a lot of FAVORITISM when it comes to career advancement. Very disappointing place to work. Like many others have found at SLU, the Jesuit mission is just a marketing gimmick here. Lots of UNETHICAL practices when it comes to hiring and promotions.

Good benefits package. Tuition for kids is a very nice benefit. Beautiful campus. Genuinely enjoy the people I work with on a daily basis and my interactions with students.

Cons

No room for growth, leadership at department and senior level tends to play favorites, tough financial situation, tendency towards group-think over innovation.
