Pros

Friendly co-workers. Everyone in English department was very helpful in helping me create a syllabus, etc. Working in the writing center was a very rewarding experience as well.

Cons

The pay. A lot of work for very little compensation. Also, RVC rarely hires its own adjuncts for their full time, tenure track positions. I don't begrudge them that fact, but if you are an adjunct and looking to get hired on full time the chances are very, very slim.

Wonderful place for students, not so much for employees

Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of opportunity to participate and employees there have plenty of opportunity to get an education or take Continuing Ed classes for free.

Cons

Sometimes there was pressure from management to perhaps undertake activities that normally would not have been things I participated in due to my belief system. A lot of overspending where it was not necessary during employee conferences, etc.
