Pros

Great Benefits; diverse employment opportunities, working on an academic campus allows for great collaboration across various fields and they are updating the HR plan, that will allow for greater work flexibility and an even better benefits package.

Cons

Not a lot of growth in individual positions; limited advancement opportunities, often times high quality employees are not recognized which can affect morale. Depending on the department, senior management often selects less than ideal solutions for issues as opposed to asking the employees.

Pros

They care about the employees. There are multiple efforts to support everyone, it is a welcoming environment, HR is very supportive.

Cons

VCU is incredibly bureaucratic and poorly ran. Things move slow, very slow. More slow than normal universities should. It isn't just "oh this is academia, things move slow." It's legitimate poor management across multiple levels of leadership.
