Pros

work-life balance, smart dedicated colleagues

Cons

Management, pay, benefits, hierarchal elitist structure. The tuition benefit was used in my salary negotiation, then just as I am getting ready to apply to a program, the benefit is altered so I cannot use it for another two years, and now there is a 10% tuition payment required. That might not sound like much, but Georgetown graduate programs are nearly 7k a class! I am better off applying to other schools and going for scholarships.

Pros

GU has proven loyalty and fairness to employees during this pandemic time. Some people were asked to volunteer for furloughs and they came back after 60 days to gain back their jobs

Cons

Pay is not great but the benefits outweighed the lack of it.
