Pros

There are good benefits such as: generous time off, free tuition, and gift donations to 401k. Most employees do care and want to help and do a good job.

Cons

There is not a vested interest in the employees and students. The environment has gone from good to bad over the 10 years I've been here. The upper management is all about money and their image. Employee development is lacking. There is not an avenue for employees to contribute to the improvement of processes. In contrast employees are expected to put their head down and follow whatever ridiculous decision is made from management. When you do attempt to understand changes that don’t make sense, you are labeled as pushing back and a trouble maker. You will be pushed out if you are not in the clique and will not be promoted regardless of qualifications. The leaders chosen are because of the buddy system. This place is a great place to work if you do not want to advance and enjoy a factory worker type environment where you just take directions and don’t ask questions.

Pros

Decent health care benefits, free University education for the family, time off throughout Christmas and New Years.

Cons

Zero job growth opportunities. Everyone gets the same wage increase percentage which eliminates any incentive to go above and beyond campus wide. If you want a job for life, this is the place to come. If you want a career, keep looking elsewhere.
