Pros

Howard Community College has a great environment to work in. The student body is great to work with. Plenty of time off and very good health insurance options.

Cons

As a staff member it is hard to grow. There is not a lot of turnover, therefore positions are rarely open. A lot of times they hire from outside the college instead of promoting within. Pay is lower than average because it is education field. Very hard to gain promotion without a Masters degree.
