Pros

Some good people, the culture is ok

Cons

Some people are working there for more than 10 years, and seems to hate working there. It makes the environment toxic. There is an administrator in particular that looks nice, but in private makes terrible comments, super inappropriate! If he is not happy there, why don't leave?
