Pros

Offers really good benefits. Holiday schedule is good. This is a good place to start fresh out of school and get experience. Flexible schedule.

Cons

A lot of politics. no room for growth. low salaries. Would not recommend staying here for more than 1 year. Unless you are planning on staying in academics there is nothing that will be good enough. A bunch of professors covering each other's backs.
