Pros

beautiful and diverse campus, decent pay, students interested in bettering their community

Cons

The university administration has run this place into the ground. They say they are running on "Holy Cross values," yet the highly paid administrators are the only people left standing after gutting vital services across the university due to financial mismanagement (they will blame it on COVID but President Martin remains one of the highest paid university president's in America). Management has no idea how services are run or what importance they have on student retention. They only look at the bottom line, which is their own profit. People in higher positions regularly use microaggressions that demonstrate racist and misogynistic beliefs. HR does not take complaints seriously, and nothing is done to address the irrational and inappropriate behavior of department supervisors. President Martin and his administration have run this place into the ground. I would be very surprised if the university will last another 10 years.
