Pros

Decent health insurance if you teach two classes or more, but you're unlikely to manage that if you aren't a current PhD student.

Cons

Administration is awful, support isn't good for adjuncts, graduate students are barely making ends meet. There has been a living wage movement active for years but despite huge support from faculty and students, the administration continues to ignore it

Pros

Allows you to experience leadership in academia. You meet with university administrators and students and learn what is happening in the university.

Cons

Lots of issues no one is willing to solve and you have to enforce lots of bureaucratic rules.
