Pros

You get a really nice gift at the beginning of every school year. Really sold base salary for someone right out of grad school. The First Year Writing Program is headed by some awesome people You care about education.

Cons

Expected to drink the corporate kool-aid. Use instructors and other non-tenure track folks until they burn out. The reputation of the school matters more than its academic rigor. Conservative student population that expect to be catered to and are afraid of being challenge.

Pros

Amazing colleagues across all schools

Cons

administration cares ZERO PERCENT for faculty and staff, as well as students, once they get them on campus as freshman. Pay is ridiculously low and we can’t hire new people because of it.
