Pros

-Free MBA -Campus is pretty and nice to walk around when you need a break from how crappy your job is

Cons

-Salary is terrible, only reason anyone should work there is to get the free MBA. They were trying to get a web developer for 42k. In the private world, any decent web developer is 60k MINIMUM. -On that subject, management routinely slashes salaries by 10% when someone quits, so if you're applying for a job, you're probably making substantially less than the person before you. They call it the cost of "knowledge transfer" but when pay is so terrible, it'll take 5+ years to match that. -Don't expect any decent raises. -There's so much bureaucracy and nonsense, don't expect to get anything accomplished. People don't want to change what they're doing. They'll hide behind their job descriptions and refuse to do anything new -I don't know if the Tulane culture wears people down or if they join Tulane because they don't want to do much, but people here do the bare minimum. There are a few good people who actually want to do something right, but they usually leave or give up hope after a few years. -Health benefits are pretty mediocre for a school that owns a hospital network
