Pros

Making a difference in Higher Education, Friendly culture, Competitive health benefits, Tuition waiver for all dependents; Would recommend working at ASU as long as you are not in IT. AZ state retirement benefit only if you started early in your career.

Cons

Low salaries and not created equal across the various departments. No opportunity for professional growth or training due to time constraints. Over allocated resources. Top heavy. High yearly parking dues and sometimes still have to park about a block away to get to the building you work in or have to walk through heavily traffic intersections.

Pros

Good healthcare plan, lots of vacation, in most cases they leave you alone to do your job.

Cons

"Knowledge Enterprise Development" is the part of ASU to avoid. The only way to get promoted is to leave. Management talks a good game, but never delivers. If someone leaves, they stall 8-10 months before hiring a replacement to save money. Crow puts so much pressure on his cabinet to meet baseless metrics, that his VPs treat their people very poorly.
