Pros

Pleasant work environment. Friendly coworkers. Excellent benefits. Some managers and supervisors are excellent mentors. University area is full of interesting activities/restaurants/etc.

Cons

Lots of people don't pull their weight, which is OK since many areas are overstaffed. Salaries are very not standardized--be sure to negotiate well and do your research before accepting a number if hired

Pros

The work when I had it was amazing, I really appreciated it for what it gave me.

Cons

Unfortunately, with the change in management came zero transparency and rules for thee, not for me. It's led to really weird decisions.
