Pros

With classes out of session, work typically slows down in the summer giving you time to job search.

Cons

If you are any combination of intelligent, thoughtful or ambitious, be prepared to be fully taken advantage of. You'll be welcomed with open arms by folks who will then dump their workload onto you. Those who survive at the organization seem to be the least qualified. In my department, there are no protocols, no structure, no communication, no organization. Leadership is grossly unqualified and unwilling to to their jobs. These concerns have been brought to the attention of senior leadership, but they seem to do nothing although they solicit employee feedback.

Pros

Beautiful campus. Mostly engaged students.

Cons

Academic and Financial/Service departments are expected to function with 1/3 of the staff of comparable schools while Admissions, Institutional Advancement and Communications are bloated and ineffective. Searches for staff jobs are not done by hiring committees. Advancement and staff placement is entirely up to the whims of the department head. This leads to racism, sexism, and favoritism.
