Pros

Working at University of Texas at Dallas has a lot going for it. It’s in a really strong job market, especially for tech and business, so you’re naturally close to industry connections and opportunities. The school itself is pretty research-focused, which is great if you want to stay involved in new ideas and projects rather than just doing routine work.

Cons

The salary is a little lower
