Pros

A great location with easy access to the rest of the city, passionate employees, and a very helpful starting salary.

Cons

As a short-term casual employee within the School of Professional Studies, I had to deal with a lot of the bureaucracy of a very old institution that struggles to change. HR can be a mess, even with great people working in it.
