-Good benefits and reasonable pay -Good work-life balance (for hourly employees) -Nice campus -Opportunities for community and education -Some departments function really well and when things go smoothly, it can be a great job

Cons

-Extremely hierarchical and emphasis on being "subordinate" to management; HR takes the stance that the boss is always right -Hiring and promotion choices are often based on personal connections rather than qualifications -Administration can be old-fashioned and unwilling to ruffle feathers even when it's the right thing to do
