Pros

Working for Facilities at CSU was a pretty decent gig. I was able to work on a number of high-profile projects and really learned a lot about project management from the universities perspective.

Cons

Some people in the management could be petty. At times work would go though a boom bust cycle, one week you'd be twiddling your thumbs, the next you'd be slammed with work.

Pros

It is a great place to work because you are generally working with students so they are open-minded and geared to learning.

Cons

There is currently a pay raise lock as the school is not receiving enough funding. In tough times the university suffers because the state cannot provide further funding.
