Pros

The university provides a quality education to its students. Purdue is one of the largest employment sources for the area.

Cons

I believe the average length of employment is around 15 years for the majority of the staff and administration. They are stuck in old ways and fight every chance to move processes into the 21st century. Older employees who lack technological skills resent newer employees who bring new approaches. You find more retirees who have returned and temps working there than fresher employees. There is a high turnaround for employees working there two years or less.

Pros

Great benefits and job security. Large organization with plenty of opportunity for lateral moves, try new jobs, and get promoted.

Cons

Perhaps too much emphasis and love for the invention of AI.
