Great benefits, not sure about long term job growth
Pros
Flexible, great benefits, good mission, great area. If you don't take advantage of the TAP program here you are a crazy person, it's awesome. You will work with a lot of incredibly smart and dedicated people (some not so much, see cons).
Cons
There is a higher than average lifer/hard-worker ratio here than most places. It's seems like it's getting harder to disappear in to the bureaucracy (which is good), but there are still some entitled staff that view having their job as a right. I say that as a staff member. Staff are also always the lowest on the totem pole. Pray a faculty member doesn't see something of yours they want, it might be gone the next day... like your office for instance. And while the benefits are great, the pay is not. Price of a healthy work-life balance it seems, but as a young worker it is frustrating watching your peers in similar positions make down payments on houses while you can only envision renting.
