    University of Pennsylvania Anonymous in Philadelphia, PA:   (Current Employee)

    Pros

    great benefits, opportunities for advancement, faculty and staff in general are great people to work and interact with. Good place to work.

    Cons

    location, pay is only so so, political, takes forever to get things accomplished because of the many layers and decentralization

    Advice to Senior Management

    cut out unnecessary levels of management and procedures. There are also a lot of legacy staff and positions around wasting space and resouces. These should be evaluated.
