Pros

Very friendly faculty members and high profile research projects

Cons

Very limited flexibility to design and conduct your research projects, since the principal investigator as a control freak wants you do everything as she thinks is right, without considering your opinions.

Do *NOT* work there, unless you are that financially desperate

Pros

Decent salary (but low compared to other universities in the area) and the possibility of a tuition benefit.

Cons

No pension, limited benefits, incompetent management, rampant emotional abuse, and struggling so much financially that I was concerned for my job the entire time I was there. Also, had i had the financial means, I would have filed a law suit for mistreatment and discrimination. I highly recommend to everyone I know to never work there. It simply isn't worth it.
