      Smart people, rampant absenteeism, low accountability

      Pros

      Use of the latest computer equipment, transportation subsidies, free use of MIT libraries, liberal leave.

      Cons

      Performance takes a back seat to cronyism. Staff promotions are determined by committee. Leaders consider "policy" a dirty word; employees take advantage. Some faculty are arrogant and entitled. HR is ineffective.

      Epic dysfunction at one of the top b-schools in the country--but great benefits

      Pros

      MIT offers exceptional benefits, including amazing tuition reimbursement opportunities and full-time health benefits for half-time work. In addition, you have the chance to work with some outstanding people and, depending on the role, deal with some interesting issues.

      Cons

      Dysfunction is sweeping and systemic. Politics are rife at any university, but the intensity of the politics depends on who's leading the school at any given time. Under present leadership at the business school, politics are especially frenzied. Bureaucracy is such that the unfit are rarely fired and often promoted to leadership positions. The politically skilled rise swiftly; some are talented at other things, and some are not, but political skill trumps everything.
