Pros
Benefits are great (health insurance, education, sick/vacation time), inspiring to work in higher education since so many opportunities to learn and work with interesting young students.
Cons
The difficulty lies in the pay---they always hire at the bottom of the 'range' with almost no chance whatsoever to move up the payscale. If you come from the private sector it can be a shock to work in a complex bureaucracy like a public university. Not a dynamic, agile environment for putting ideas into practice if you are on the staff or admin.
