Pros

Great location (plus campus shuttles to replace the lack of metro). Good reputation. Great School of Foreign Service.

Cons

As a jesuit college it states that it is commited to social justice. However, syllabus is just like at any other school and there are no better benefits for disadvantaged than any other organization in a right wing country would offer. Staff pay is extremely low in comparison to the CEOs/faculty pay.

Pros

Job security throughout budget cuts happening in the public health industry currently. Plenty of PTO and holiday paid leave.

Cons

Constant threats by upper management to "write us up/disciplinary action" for anything. Director is really unfair/disrespectful/condescending to our supervisor and so that trickles down to data coordinators. For example currently there is a threat that we will be "written up" if we do not meet all the competing deadlines. Ive seen sooo people many come and go in this sector over the past 3 years its insane. Its alot of data to manually enter and one must be organized /driven and on top of your game but it gets borring if your not passionate about the cancer trials you are working on.
