Pros

Stanford offers great benefits for Staff employees. The working environment is great. The salary is however on the lower end.

Cons

The salary is pretty low in comparison to a similar job in industry. Since the economic downturn Stanford started to cut down holidays and stopped salary increases. Employees are forced to take their holidays within the year.

Pros

The weather at best. I can't say much more. It is a great place to go if you are a sociopath that wants to make a lot of money and meet fellow Patrick Bateman types.

Cons

A toxic working environment. Situated in a very difficult to navigate suburban environment. Very little social life for young students and professionals. Very little soul. People here are self, rather than group oriented. Corruption is rampant, especially among the professors; famously this even includes our former president.
