Pros

Great training ground to learn and build experience. Got to work with intelligent and kind people in similar departments. Lots of hard working folks here who really care about student affairs.

Cons

Poor salary that doesn't catch up to market value. Hard work with little appreciation. Not much promotional opportunity. Still figuring out how to respond to staff needs.
