Pros

Free classes, good benefits, easy access off Interstate, many paid days off to recover from being at work. Good band and pep squad. Up-to-date computer equipment and software campuswide-they did a good job keeping the latest bells and whistles on everyone's computer.

Cons

Politics, favoritism, some people were not challenged when they acted inappropriately because administrators feared backlash. Inappropriate references to people's religious beliefs and proselytizing--religious messages on employee's voicemail, questions about religious beliefs during job interviews. Salary compression a huge problem--newly graduated faculty brought in at the current salary of 20-year veterans.
