Pros

Salaries are more competitive than the other higher education institutions in the area.

Cons

Tuition coverage and benefits are not competitive, de-centralized administrative processes lead to a lot of red tape, mistakes, and difficulty making positive procedural changes. Currently a hiring freeze prevents open positions from being posted for 6 months, so staff is expected to cover other positions without extra compensation. Major budget cuts underway, extremely low raises, and possible future lay offs expected.
