Pros – The Conference Department management really cares about the department's employees. If you're a good worker - punctual, attentive, organized - they will take care of you. I've never seen a place that is so easy going with time-off requests.

Cons – No opportunity for advancement. It's a small department and the boss is very competent, and he's not going anywhere. However, there is opportunity to transfer within the University.

Advice to Senior Management – Continue allowing the Conference Department to operate without you meddling.

Current Employee – been working at University of Florida full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – -They have a great selection of courses
-There are great professors
-They give awesome opportunities for research
-You are always pushed to succeed
-The weather is great

Cons – -I didn't find too many cons about working at the University of Florida. It was far from home for me, so that was a bit of a con. Also, I am from the Midwest where the people are very friendly. In Florida, there is a bit of an East Coast atmosphere. People are at a much faster pace and aren't as friendly as the Midwest.

Advice to Senior Management – Instead of cutting the budget so much, I think the tuition should be raised a bit. For the quality of the University, the tuition is quite low.
