Pros

There were a lot of pros, particularly the salary was competitive, there is a strong union presence and you get additional paid days of for holiday closures.

Cons

The commute into the city if you are living outside of it is definitely a con. Opportunity for growth in my particular department was also minimal, which led to my resignation.

Pros

Great benefits! Lots of sick time holidays off. and summers are very laid back. Wish I could have stayed longer as I saw my time there as a great career opportunity. But toxicity, harassment and layoffs made me rethink staying

Cons

Management is incredibly toxic. Even after union grievances, sexual harassment claims and even a warning from the dean, managers continue to abuse staff. Incredibly sad seeing as Boston University rather lay off good employees than hold anyone from management accountable for their actions.
