Pros
Fairly decent benefits including medical, dental, vision, life insurance. The best benefit by far is the retirement - 403(b) with 6% employer contribution after one year, and they will contribute an additional 3% to your 2% contribution.
Cons
It's higher education so there are tons of silos. Often there are antiquated processes that never change....paper forms for example or particularly manual processes that could easily be updated with technology to make them easier. I am disappointed with the time off - in higher education in another state, because salaries were typically lower than average, they made up for it with extremely generous time off. (Many state universities where I came from averaged 25 days of vacation per year, plus sick time.) Emory touts itself for flexible work policies, but I find it's pretty difficult to actually get one of those in place. A lot of my work could be done remotely, but it doesn't seem to be encouraged and you get the impression people think you're not working if you try to take advantage of that. No maternity leave whatsoever, which is disappointing in higher education. Other liberal arts institutions frequently offer paid maternity leave (with some restrictions). Here, it's either short term disability or wiping out your paid leave and taking unpaid FMLA time.
