Business Outlook

Pros

Working with the students everyday

Cons

Management is terrible. Unless you have an important title your voice is not heard at all and your opinions and ideas are usually dismissed. There is poor communication between staff and supervisors and you usually don’t find out information until after the fact. Management is more focused on reputation of company than their employees.
