Pros

International, intellectual environment, impressive research, low cost of living

Cons

Once upon a time the low pay staff received was balanced by job security and benefits. It was a great place to work and a family atmosphere. This is no longer the case. Expect to still see salaries about 20% less than market but staff expendable mindset today. After 25 yrs of exceptional service, considering cost of living, I made less at Purdue than I did starting as a new grad in 1988.
