Pros
Excellent benefits and good work life balance.
Cons
Low paying job for the area and the highers up do not recognize that the people at the bottom who are actually running the operations of the organization deserve more pay. $$$ is thrown away daily for nonsense and there is no oversite. There is zero room fro growth and you will become stagnant in our job. Its all appearances people. There is a lot of bad things that happen to students too and noone cares.

Pros
Great mentors for research. Graduate teaching assistant stipend was not much to live on, but you can easily make it work if you live in the right place and are somewhat frugal.
Cons
Graduate level coursework was not nearly as rigorous as I would hope.

Pros
Pretty progressive. Generous leave and benefits. Beautiful campus.
Cons
If you're not in a union or a professor, expect little to no raises. Every 5 years there's a self inflicted budget crisis.
