Pros

NU has phenomenal benefits and overall provides a great work life balance. There is great access to resources for career growth and opportunities.

Cons

Some of the great benefits were recently impacted such as the retirement match. This has been temporarily suspended and I do not see this being reinstated for some time. The retirement match wait period has also been changed from 1 year to 2 years which will make it more difficult for new hires to be enticed by the match (if and when it is reinstated). As it is with every company, you have some great supervisors and not so great.

Pros

Great benefits for health and tuition if you are looking for a northwestern program

Cons

Low salary, not willing to negotiate from offer, no longer offer portable tuition

Pros

Great benefits. Friendly work environment and highly helpful staff

Cons

There's really not much to do beyond what Chicago has to offer.
