"Choose you department carefully. Ask questions up front, including about how many women are in the department, and what their roles are. Don't be afraid to. They have great benefits at UVA, and you can move to roles between departments, but compensation is not the market rate, so, be sure you will be able to grow. "

"It really depends on your roles and your department. If you are in a position that has you fronting students, or patients, of course there is less flexibility. But if you are in roles that have you working independently there is a lot of flexibility and good vacation time. "

"Lots of red tape. Major diversity issues throughout the university culture, including deeply rooted issues re: race, and mixed/polarized handling of transgender issues (i.e., bathroom policies bay by building/department, neutral initiatives received negative feedback)."
