Pros

Absolutely nothing is positive about working at Purdue.

Cons

School keeps figuring out ways not to give raises. The newest is the Job Family & Salary Band structure; placement on the grid can hurt you financially, but it can't help you. They keep reducing our health benefits while trying to spin it as if its a positive thing. They insist that staff come to work when students are dismissed due to weather. They insist that staff come to work with no working plumbing in our building Employees must come to work in the winter when we have no working heat The above can be summarized; Purdue cares nothing about its employees.
