Pros

Great benefits such as good dental/medical, as well as free/discounted college admission. Great basketball team too!

Cons

Syracuse University has a terrible history of racism - not only with their faculty, but also with the Alumni. African-Americans only take up roughly 9% of the total alumni. Add that with last year's #notagainsu movement where SU blantant racist actions have caused the expulsion of multiple African-Americans, but you also have people spray painting swastikas and the N word on random walls. Even in the place where I work, you have faculty doing the same thing. There's very little diversity here. It's mostly white smiling faces. Where I work, there's about 80 or 90 people total, but only 4 people of color including myself. Previous African-Americans who worked in my department have all left because of the constant berating the surrounding staff has put them through, and I'll be one of those people leaving soon.

Pros

Benefits but they are letting go of people who use them.

Cons

Mean spirited work environment, hostile incompetent new VP and Directors that cannot lead or manage. Business decisions without plans, just dreams no real action and then take it out on the average worker.
