Pros

The campus itself is a nice place to work. It offers the hustle and bustle of student life and has a lot of places to sit under trees to have lunch, etc. It may be okay to work here, if you are working and going to school at the same time, because of the convenience factor. They also offer to pay the tuition, or at least most of it (if you want to go to school here) for I believe up to two classes (with a fee waiver) if you work here, (with permission from your boss, of course.)

Cons

The pay is on the low end of the scale: It is about 1/2 to 2/3 of what the corporate world offers for the same job title. The staff is usually pretty good to work with but there are some management complaints. There is little or no room for advancement. Parking is a nightmare on most days, even with a faculty/staff pass. I have worked at the State level and in the private sector. I have experienced the pay and atmosphere in the private sector to be the better choice.
