Pros

I've worked at larger universities in several states. SHSU is just the right size with a good sized student population, stable finances, and a forward looking leadership that isn't afraid to try new things. Benefits are substantial and there is opportunity for career growth if you move among departments. If you are looking to further your education, there are course credit benefits for full time employees. There is an honest focus on doing what is best for students, which is rewarding and motivational for staff in all areas.

Cons

Huntsville is a small town and somewhat rural. Many employees choose to commute in from more desirable Conroe or the Woodlands.
