Business Outlook
Pros
High number of opportunities for lifelong learners You generally run into collaborative, positive people willing to work across departments Relatively easy to find new roles across the university, however, job growth within a team can be challenging
Cons
Well under-market salary Average to poor family leave benefits Experience can be highly department dependent. I've worked as full time staff in two different departments with vastly different cultures and expectations The university is in the midst of significant staff downsizing and resources in many departments are very limited.
