Business Outlook

Pros

Student quality was average - many first generation college students seeking careers. Fellow faculty in my department were collegial and supportive.

Cons

Low pay, horrible benefits, heavy workload, no respect from upper administration. In a committee I witnessed the VP say to a request for course release time for research from a top scholar, "If he really was a top scholar he wouldn't be here at Washburn."

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits generous. Good Fit for the IT services, and had opportunity to engage in cutting edge systems, and help make major system upgrades including hosted environments. Helping staff and students with technology and faculty and staff. My favorite work was working with diverse technologies, including new registers, chip and pin retail systems.

Cons

With the Hosted environment, once installed and functioning, there was very little IT work necessary going forward. I really wasn't interested in selling computers, I want to work in IT systems that challenge my skills and work
