Pros

The current President of FSU understands that employees should be treated with respect and he does everything that he can to compensate when he can. The IT management has a clear vision of where they want to be. FSU is quick to adopt new technology.

Cons

State Budget cuts have trimmed away a lot of the IT budget. The State Legislature of Florida does not value higher education and despite the presidents best efforts, they believe that state employees should be paid no more than minimum wage.

Pros

I already knew the campus and the culture of the University, so there wasn't a learning curve in that regard. Support staff has a regular schedule and decent benefits, however, all that has changed even in the few years I've been here.

Cons

As support staff, there's not a lot of opportunity for growth. That being said, it's a relatively stable/secure job in a city where the state government seems to be cutting jobs right and left.
