Pros

None, it gets zero stars.

Cons

This place is a racket, exploitative, a dictatorship, unappreciative, disorganized, they only care about the generation and milking the government agencies for grant money. Unrealistic teaching and research expectations ( you teach 15 credit hours and sometimes 2 or 3 credit overload and they expect you to generate a million dollars just to be considered for tenure. ) They really don't care about research ( quality), they only care about grant money. The administration treats faculty like children, no shared governance, no dialog, nothing, just a bunch of psychos who will stay there for 30 or 40 , or even more years getting huge salaries and satisfying their egos ( always petting themselves in the back for a mediocre job.)

Pros

I can't really think of any advantages of working at Hampton University.

Cons

When considering how high tuition was at Hampton University, one would have easily thought employees were paid more. However, it was just the opposite. The same position at a local PWI was paid twice what I made for the same job with the same duties. I would never want to work there again.
