Pros
For most, an easy commute, but that is likely to change soon.
Cons
Within the past 5 years: Extreme disloyalty to long term "workhorse employees" with great evaluations and productivity - as in mass terminations with no regard to performance. No support, inadequate infrastructure, no opportunities for involvement and advancement and active opposition for those who try to create them. Top heavy and clueless administration goes against their own policies. Most decisions are top down, but the attempts to coat it with a veneer of input from faculty are insulting lies. E.G. recent merger with campus decided with NO faculty or student input - but "Hey, a contest to name the merged campuses" which will likely be disastrous for students and another imposition on underpaid faculty. Politically and secretively appointed president of University. Salaries are 25-50% below comparable institutions (except top administrators.) Take a job outside academe rather than work here.
