There were generally good colleagues who generally pulled their weight. The support staff were generally very good and friendly. The facilities, particularly the library, were very good.
Cons
Towards the end there was some pressure from upper management who barely knew or appreciated what I did. The IT services was particularly bad, although that improved later on. The bureaucracy.
Advice to Management
Keep continuing to improve the IT services. Continue to improve a more supportive environment for your staff, particularly in the area of getting grants.
