Pros

Benefits were good. Cultural diversity is inspiring. Beautiful campus. Campus to staff involvement is fun.

Cons

Extremely difficult to move from an Admin position without leaving the department. Management is a hierarchy and utilizes fear and threats to "motivate" employees, especially student employees. No incentive to attend and finish degree. Money driven.
