Business Outlook

Pros

Very pleasant, collegial work environment. Interesting and intelligent staff and students. High-level technology, systems and facilities. Access to campus facilities (fitness center, dining services, theater, etc.) and activities (reading groups, lectures, choir, etc.)

Cons

Training was adequate, but could be greater emphasis on employee development. Because of the relatively small size of the college, and the general satisfaction/loyalty of staff, there is low staff turnover, and thus not many options for movement/growth within the organization.
