Pros

Not being there anymore is nice.

Cons

Every single person in a leadership role sans the Exec Director is awful to work for and with in every capacity. They don't care about you or your work and they allow really egregious behavior to continue even after multiple complaints.

Pros

A campus with a lot of natural beauty

Cons

Salaries, even after raises are not at all livable for the region; ridiculous that the largest healthcare provider in the region is not an option
