Pros

Good pay, fair benefits, has resources

Cons

Incredibly bureaucratic, hard to navigate, onboarding not designed for the new employee but for HR to check some whatever compliance boxes that don’t really represent reality

Sucked.

Pros

Teaching undergrads is somewhat rewarding.

Cons

UC will pay you as little as it possibly can and most professors will happily go along with it while preaching about social justice. The university is run like a business, because it is a business.
