Great Environment, pay below market, some positions overworked

Systems administrator

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Nice people, beautiful campus, solid benefits. Some perks like free gym and pool use. Generally a pleasant place to be.

Cons

Pay is low. Some positions are really two or three crammed into one, but this varies across departments. Turnover has been rough in the past couple of years. Sometimes it doesn't feel as well organized as a prestigious college that is over a hundred years old should, nor as well-funded.
