Pros

RIT is a university that is constantly striving for high quality education beyond the classroom. Thus, there are plenty of opportunities for people who see a university as not just a workplace but as a place where they can contribute to help educate people and help shape the future of its students. Plus, there is always a possibility to continue learning not only while at work but also after work. I think the benefit package is quite good and since RIT is determined to grow and keep up with the best universities in the country I am sure there will always be interesting job opportunities.

Cons

Despite all the good things and the good benefits package that comes with being employed at RIT I think the payment level as such could be higher. That is true at least for Non-Faculty. I cannot say much about Faculty, but administrative staff could be payed more competitively. Other than that there is nothing else that one should considerate when starting at RIT. Oh ya, at lot of people complain about weather, too long winter and too much rain but that is more Rochester specific than employer specific. Again, I can only recommend RIT as a potential employer.
