Pros

People are nice to each other (as employees, not to the students!). It might be due to the fact that they all connect with each other as they are all unhappy with work environment :)

Cons

Where to start....well, of course pay- terrible pay to compare to other universities in Hampton Roads area. Do not count on benefits. They will NOT show you them until they hire you. The least expensive plan they offer will cost you for family of 3 around $800. The retirement, vacation leave not so great and if you work under grants, it's even worse. The administration is stuck in time....more like 20 years ago and they are not willing to do any changes....from employee policy, technology etc.....there is only paper trail for all the documents so you better keep copy everything you send out! If you are already hired, use this time to add to your resume, spply for new job and....RUN!!!!! Do not get comfortable there unless you don't want to move in your career. I could write books about this place but it is not even worth it.

The location in relation to where I live. The size of the school. Lattititude Im given to recommend changwe and improvement

Cons

Interstaff communication can be better. Need to streamline some procedures for faculty and students. Compensation for duties assigned is not where it needs to be in relation to competition.
