Pros

None, except a small group of people that I had the privilege of working with (locally, not systemwide)

Cons

Leadership has openly admitted that they are aligning themselves with the legislature; meaning they are striving to take KCTCS into the past and not looking toward the future. As great as it is to have a system of community colleges throughout the entire state of Kentucky, for the people of this fine state, it will never last. Those in power have no desire to be a system, and would rather be run individually and not embrace progressive, centralized, modern ideas that ensure their success going forward. I expect the System to fall apart within the next 2-3 years resulting in the loss of hundreds of jobs unless Andy Beshear can get involved in overhauling the board, the cabinet, and ensuring the new President some how can redirect their goals.

Pros

Co-workers are awesome. You genuinely do some good for the community by educating a diverse array of engaged students. That's about it.

Cons

Admin expect you to do well over 100 hours of interval service, external service, and elective PD in your first year on top of a massive slate of an utterly useless new faculty program. All of this as a brand new faculty member just trying to get your feet under you will drown you while you get paid about $10,000 less than if you'd just gone to teach at the local high school. You'll also be expected to learn how to advise students outside of your area of expertise with an archaic program that Satan himself created: PeopleSoft. Higher-ups tend to ignore serious faculty council concerns and everyone just kind of shrugs and resigns themselves to concerns being addressed as quickly as molasses in winter, if at all.
