Pros

Friendly coworkers and growth-focused environment. Beautiful grounds to walk and take breaks in. Feels good serving students' learning goals.

Cons

Unlike most state employees, we do not have step raises. Expect to be hired at the lowest end of the salary range. We typically get 2.5 or 3% general salary increase per year but this has been frozen since COVID.
