Pros

If you are careful to intentionally choose where you would like to work to gain experience as a student, you can make valuable networking relationships and benefit from opportunities through that venue.

Cons

You need to be REALLY good at networking to reach your full benefit. The culture of purple is very customer-service oriented and you need to be able to fit in with that.

Pros

- fantastic leave! PTO, Sick, Holiday, maternity - amazing people and students. Ranked high for friendliest students for a reason - tuition assistance for one place semester if you're continuing education - once your foot is in the door, potential to use internal connection to move up within the university

Cons

- pay could be more competitive but makes up for it somewhat in leave - top heavy administration, former leadership made uprooting changes and didn't see the change through; left university scrambling - resistance to change causes siloes. - structural fiscal issues that doesn't work well for interdisciplinary, collaborative work - great coworkers move up the university or leave and don't stay long
