      Pros

      The people, the support for furthering your education, and benefits are all good reasons to work here. Great community surrounding the university, wonderful for raising a family. Plenty of hikes and national forest sites to visit.

      Cons

      Because the university is located in southwest Virginia the opportunities that exist in large cities aren't here. No true nightlife, but if that's not important and nature is, you're in the right place.

      Pros

      Flexibility, Can have good work-life balance with this job. Good benefits with 5 weeks of paid-vacation time. Blacksburg has a low cost of living. Also, the campus is beautiful. People are good since it is a small town. Schools in Blacksburg are good too.

      Cons

      Growth may be restricted depending on position. Can get bureaucratic, In some departments there are restrictions on how much your pay can be raised. Since it is a small university town people feel the need to visit some big surrounding city like Washington, DC from time to time.
