Pros

Noble and worthy mission of expanding access to research-driven academics for under-represented students; start-up work environment where you get to influence how processes are established within UC guidelines; lack of resources create entrepreneurial and creative mindset

Cons

Lack of strategic leadership at the very top; lack of established priorities, leading to lots of spinning of wheels and over-worked employees who feel they have to do everything all the time with no guidance from their supervisors as to what's most important; lack of resources to do job well
