Pros

- Collegial working environment (in most departments) - Good benefits - Generous annual leave - Full tuition reimbursement with no strings attached (generous even by university standards) - Values-driven institution, senior leadership is generally ethical

Cons

- Pay below market standards for most staff positions (sometimes well below) - Lack of diversity among top administrators, "old boys club" culture is evident - Lack of transparency, culture of secrecy pervades the institution - Very little training given to managers so your experience is highly dependent on your individual manager - Many business processes slow and bureaucratic - woe betide you if you have a payroll issue
