Business Outlook

Pros

Clark is a loose school where you have freedom to teach as you like.

Cons

There's little communication within the department I'm in or the school at large. One hand doesn't know what the other is doing. When problems arise there's more finger-pointing and whining than problem solving. Like many schools, they educate on the cheap by paying low salaries.

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible time and good payment if you have certain experiences in sound and lighting setup - which is not a hard skill to acquire.

Cons

Your first year of work would be sort of boring since they will not assign well paid projects to newbie. My advice is to try to shadow the former techs as much as possible.
