Pros

Most students are excited to learn and try new things and proactively go out and seek new knowledge in their own with a you providing some exposure or direction.

Cons

Most of the colleagues in the college I worked in were married to each other. In a department of ~30 faculty there were around 6 or 8 married couples which made it a political nightmare to deal with unless you could get them on your side. However, they were relatively open to listening to MY suggestions...just not everyone's.

Pros

- fantastic leave! PTO, Sick, Holiday, maternity - amazing people and students. Ranked high for friendliest students for a reason - tuition assistance for one place semester if you're continuing education - once your foot is in the door, potential to use internal connection to move up within the university

Cons

- pay could be more competitive but makes up for it somewhat in leave - top heavy administration, former leadership made uprooting changes and didn't see the change through; left university scrambling - resistance to change causes siloes. - structural fiscal issues that doesn't work well for interdisciplinary, collaborative work - great coworkers move up the university or leave and don't stay long
