Pros

Good benefits, tuition remission, love my personal supervisor

Cons

They're really not handling the return to office transition well. Overall, they're giving a lot of lip service to listening to the concerns of the staff and then doing whatever they wanted to do in the first place. It isn't a great environment. They pay a bit better than other universities in the area, but I imagine that's just so it makes it harder to leave.
