Pros

GW is located at a very attractive locations, just a few blocks from the white house. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe, and have easy access to a lot of restaurants, grocery stores.

Cons

The school system works in a very low efficient, bureaucratic way. Some staffs, especially who manages pay checks, often make mistakes, although they treat you nicely. I think GW gets too bureaucratic as a school.

Pros

Family-friendly, central location, tuition reimbursement, flexible work schedule, vacation time, many opportunities for professional development, trainings & cultural learning activities. Also in a locale that is bursting with new growth.

Cons

The salaries, although not terrible, were not always comparable to other organizations. Also depending on job type, career advancement may be a bit stagnant. However they are instantly receiving grants & funding for further research.
