Pros

The kids are amazing and do fantastic things. If they would focus less on just the grade, however, it could be something really spectacular. Great facilities to work in.

Cons

Department Chair has ulterior motives and in general, not a people-person at all. Not sure they could manage a fruit stand profitably, and certainly can't hold a conversation for more than a minute or so. The college is no longer focusing on the mission as much as the political statement they hope to make, which is a shame. While the value is still there, with an emphasis on political agendas, students are becoming turned off. Third and fourth generation Grovers will continue to send their kids there, but at this point, there really is not much room for folks with a different opinion on politics and/or government.

Pros

Friendly environment, beautiful campus, the students are great, good benefits, access to the gym, lots of great people working here.

Cons

Poorly structured, poor communication between departments, lower pay than other higher ed institutions, very little chance of advancement, very low cost of living raise ( Newer employees with less experience get hired making much much more than employees that have been here for years due to the very low yearly raises), hourly employees are not valued, not culturally diverse, from what I've seen women seem to be paid much less than men.

Pros

Friendly staff/faculty. Many opportunities to learn and grow in your field and in other fields. Absolutely beautiful campus. Technology is up to date and well supported. Benefit package is better than any other place I've worked. This is a place to stay and build a career.

Cons

Some areas do not have a lot of room for advancement. The college hires a lot of graduates/alumni. This is only a "con" if you are not an alum!
