I have been working at University of Liverpool part-time for more than 3 years
Pros
better salary than other U.K universities friendly people
Cons
I've worked in two departments over the last 4 years. Previous department was great in terms of flexible working, working from home and manager was great at her job. Current department is the complete opposite - no autonomy, no trust and no working from home.
Advice to Management
Make sure all line managers are consistent in their approach throughout the University.

Try to value all staff and resist forcing staff to leave if they don't have enough publications. Better to help them get back on track with their research. People are are most precious resource.
