Pros

- You have the ability to work any case from start to finish without having to pass it off to an investigations unit. - You get to pave your own path at the department by being able to find LE courses and the administrative staff are generally supportive - The university allows families of employees 7 credit hours and employees 3 credit hours of classes per semester and the department is supportive of officers taking university classes.

Cons

- The pay has been behind, but the administration has taken large steps to bring it up to par with other departments.

Pros

- fantastic leave! PTO, Sick, Holiday, maternity - amazing people and students. Ranked high for friendliest students for a reason - tuition assistance for one place semester if you're continuing education - once your foot is in the door, potential to use internal connection to move up within the university

Cons

- pay could be more competitive but makes up for it somewhat in leave - top heavy administration, former leadership made uprooting changes and didn't see the change through; left university scrambling - resistance to change causes siloes. - structural fiscal issues that doesn't work well for interdisciplinary, collaborative work - great coworkers move up the university or leave and don't stay long
