Pros

Good pay. Flexible work. Unsure of the future of this flexibility however. There has been a lot of talk about returning to the office full time.

Cons

Inexperienced R1 leadership. Tuition dependent without a diversified source of income from research or fundraising. Investment income is very low vs our peers. Feels precarious when budgets are discussed in meetings.

Pros

Excellent camaraderie, strong team culture and collaboration, excellent communication within the photographic section and with other sections of the Marketing Dept., very inclusive culture, very comfortable and well-equipped work environment, photoshoots are well-planned.

Cons

Syracuse University has a look that it aims to project. It takes some time to learn that look. Deadlines are sometimes too tight, especially if considerable retouching is required. At times, extensive work is shelved, never to really be seen or used. This can be disheartening but needs to be accepted and learned from. The absolute restriction that no alcohol be shown in any photo makes some situations very difficult to photograph.
