Pros

Great people, good company mission even though the federal government is suspicious, dedicated employees; collegiate atmosphere.

Cons

Strong head winds in industry may limit career prospects. There's a fair amount of politics at upper levels of company. Need to be profitable and still satisfy needs of students is challenging.

Business Outlook

Pros

Steady work, lots of interaction with students, coworkers, and upper management, challenging problems and critical thinking a must.

Cons

Position's level of demand can be overwhelming if employee does not have strong time management skills, additional expectations include asking for recommendations for student enrollment (not part of the job description), currently using Salesforce/SRM which is very counterproductive to the position. opportunity to transfer out of position very difficult after 5 years because transfers are not lateral.
