Pros

Decent benefits, flexible work arrangements and career opportunities are there for those who network. Immediate management is doing the best with what they have.

Cons

Low pay, frozen pay and little to no recognition for above average contribution Cuts were too deep across too many areas, many functions have yet to recover. It's nearly impossible to count on routine requests being routine. Instead of hiring desperately needed employees the response has been to obtain, train and release contractors in a never ending cycle, bleeding institutional knowledge.. Management by metrics isn't taking into account the very important factors of culture and other intangibles. Too much 'ivory tower', senior management projects the image they are above understanding the interconnections of data and systems.

Pros

If you are lazy, low on motivation love 9:45am to 4:45pm job with 1 hour lunch break and don't like salary hikes and bonuses and promotions on merit and hard work this is the perfect place for you

Cons

If you don't like politics, brown nosing the so called movers and shakers of your department and also learn the art of covering your behind this may not be the right place for you
