Pros

They paid for my masters pretty much and the pay was decent.

Cons

Micromanaging from inept leadership. Class sizes of around 30 kids. The kids are a mess and there is no accountability. Grade inflation is rampant and no graduate from there is reliably literate. Promotions are based on favoratism not merit.
