Pros

Great research environment Undergraduates are engaged and professional Private university environment creates more stability Great city to be in Friendly staff and co-workers Gorgeous campus Relatively cheap housing prices

Cons

Graduate students can be hit or miss Anytime you have to deal with the administration (e.g., Workforce Management) things take forever. Processes and forms are very unclear. The only way to figure out how to get things done is to befriend administrative staff who know how things work. When a higher up administrative official doesn't like your department, it makes things difficult

Pros

Many of the staff who I've interacted with at the University truly do want to make impactful changes whether in a student facing role or a business/operation role. The staff in the student facing roles really do try to assist students and make their lives as seamless as possible when needed. While not beneficial to me the ability to pursue a degree paid for by the school is a great perk.

Cons

There is often a lot of turnover in positions that are instrumental to having a university run smoothly due to an undervaluation of those staff members. In the same vain when these teams lose personnel much of their work is folded onto the remaining team members without any increase in pay or title. This in turn causes significant burnout and usually leads to even more turnover. There is also not really a clear path in growth for staff positions often people will move to another department within the university to see any potential growth.
