Pros

Invited me to their annual conference in my first year of teaching for them. They allow me wide latitude in the administration and operation of my classroom and I have an open door to the Department Chair anytime I want to speak with him. I have learned A LOT!

Cons

They expect a lot of their adjuncts while the pay is pretty average. I must do lectures every week for each class and add additional content for students to make comments as well as lots of time setting up the course.

Pros

There are not really any pros to speak of. There were plenty when I started working there, but as the years went on I saw a lot of hollow promises.

Cons

This is a for profit college parading around as a non-profit. Executives waste buckets of money acquiring other failing colleges and marketing but terminate employees in waves. Senior management lives a lavish lifestyle while the worker bees are constantly in fear for their jobs. Family and friends of family are rewarded even if they are inept. People only work at the whim of senior management and if they ever sour on you for any reason from the way you dress one day to something someone else says about you (true or untrue), you will be fired at their earliest convenience.
