Pros

It was nice to have the opportunity to see another college campus. And it is great that they provide dinning and lodging for all of their employees. I especially enjoyed most of my colleagues and fellow instructional staff.

Cons

My main complaint is that as a teaching assistant your duties are completely determined by your instructor and oftentimes you may not be given the opportunity to exercise all of your skills and knowledge.

Pros

- Great benefits - Beautiful campus - School spirit and pride in the university amongst staff, faculty, and students

Cons

It depends on what area or department you work in. I worked at the Health Policy Center on the Education Team within Duke University and it was not a good environment to work in at all. Being at Duke is what made is better but within the health policy center, there were a lot of biases and politics that made is extremely challenging to be happy there.
