Pros

Reasonable pay rate, hybrid schedule, Culture within admissions team is friendly and supportive. Great opportunity to access education/free tuition for employees.

Cons

Complete disconnect of upper management/leadership in respect to the population this organization serves. The University is presented as serving under-served populations but recent changes to programs, tuition and policy directly contradicts this.

Pros

Great students. Mid-career, often transitioning from military to civilian. Serious-minded.

Cons

A bit of a 'black box'. An adjunct often knows little or nothing about what is going on inside the institution -- enrollments, finances, management changes, etc.
