Pros

Good location Nice, clean environment Making a difference

Cons

Insulting pay No raise after more than a year of service Lack of opportunities (most positions pay even lower than what I make, which is pennies) Too much emphasis on enrollments rather than retention (I thought I was working for a non-profit?) Generic and bland (you try to be creative and can't because of the University's "brand" voice, which is ancient and boring) No communication between employees (students get different information from different people in different departments) Cheap, cheap, cheap

Pros

Free Education It's a job Nice coworkers Some employee's are knowledgeable more so than their managers.

Cons

Management does not have any consideration for employees. Management is unethical to say the least. Preferential treatment is given to certain employees. "Merit" raises are insulting. Workload/Pay balance is insulting. Employee morale is extremely low at this company. Company is not consistent with procedures/ expectations.
