CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- The professors at the school are great, easy to work with. - Job expectations vary from professor to professor but the school makes it easy to get in contact/communicate with faculty and professors. - Comes with health insurance and a full-ride scholarship which is amazing.

Cons

- When you agree to work for the school you make a promise to not get any other jobs besides working for the school. This wouldn't be so bad if the pay was better.
