Pros

Yale University has excellent benefit packages, a strong sense of community, vast resources, a world-renowned reputation, and many exciting initiatives.

Cons

Continued job layoffs that make current employees do more than one job, lack of mentoring young professionals, lack of meaningful professional development plans, lack of appreciation for going above and beyond the call of duty, and reorganizations across the University that do not achieve more efficiency or have transparency are some cons to working at Yale.

Pros

Great benefits, lots of opportunities, exciting environment

Cons

In academia, where salaries are generally lower than in the corporate sector, there can be a disproportionate amount of arrogance because many people are motivated by prestige and status rather than financial compensation.
