Pros

Best employers and incredible, real-world experience that will undoubtedly prepare you for post-grad opportunities in management, leadership development, etc.

Cons

The down side is that when you're going through the recruitment process, you aren't told that Clairmont Campus staff members don't actually get their meals paid for

Pros

Benefits Current Supervisor -- supportive, good communicator (for the most part) Co-workers are great Opportunities for movement within the organization (after 6 mos.)

Cons

Unable to negotiate salary at hire Despite the fact the a low to mid-range is advertised for the positions, hiring managers cannot offer the even the mid-range to a new hire - doesn't seem ethical Time required in current position before being able to move to another one that more closely matches skills and experience Hiring process wasn't very smooth; HR seemed unprepared for the onboarding/frustrating Some policies unnecessarily rigid/discourages creativity in some functions
