Pros

UC Davis is a great place to work, they allow you to work based on your schedule which is great if you're a student

Cons

There isn't much to say in terms of negatives when it comes to UC Davis, but seeing as it as a public institution, pay is often non-negotiable

Pros

Great benefits, great coworkers, contributing to greater research and education mission of UC System

Cons

Transition to Shared Services for HR, Purcahsing, and Payroll has been tough - it's hard to get things done in a timely manner, and turnover and standards changes have made things a bit hard to follow chain of command. Very little investment in employee training at the departmental level - no budget for specific skills training, research, tradeshows, etc.
