Pros

I love working on such a beautiful campus, being surrounded by high-level education. The location is great and there are always fun activities and interesting lectures going on.

Cons

To some extent this probably depends on which department you are in, but support staff across the university are very hit-or-miss. There are some extremely incompetent people working at the university, and it seems like it must be nearly impossible to fire them.

Pros

It is a prestigious institution and it's name carries weight out in the world. You can get a valuable Georgetown degree for free as well.

Cons

Benefits are bad. Rank and file employees are not respected and treated poorly. Leadership is arrogant and not strategic.
