Pros

Nice athletic facilities due to the schools emphasis on sports and athletics. Starbucks and Dunking Donuts on Campus so that you can make it through the hell-ish work day.

Cons

The school takes advantage of faculty members by forcing them to perform 7 jobs in one without receiving any gratitude or recognition for work performed. Tenured faculty do nothing while non-tenured faculty have to pick up all their slack. Raises and promotions are nonexistent. Awful benefits and pay is crap. The school puts a lot of emphasis on student athletics so do not expect much in terms of academic achievement from students. There is no push for research or publications by professors. They actually steer you away from research so as to have all focus be on student hand-holding. Assistant Professors disappear after the first year because of the awful work life balance and slave labor environment. Tenured faculty members remain there because they have no other options after not having done any research or publications. I would not even recommend my worst enemy to accept a job at Springfield College.
