Pros

Conveniently located near the highway.

Cons

Very unprofessional, unorganized, low class professors and asst. professors, CEO was fired a week after I started. They charge $100,000 plus just to attend the nursing school, anybody can enroll even high school dropouts. Students cheated on the Nclex exams and other tests that were given throughout the semester, I could go on and on just don't recommend this place to work at, at all.

Unorganized No communication Administration are never responsible for their mistakes Top administrators have no idea how unethical campus administrators are Administrators are greedy.

Pros

- the buildings are nice, hours are good, and pay is decent

Cons

- constant misinformation and contradictory information - people disappear daily (administration stops by for surprise firings, others are let go without any notice) - students are treated like walking money bags and concerns are ignored in lieu of profit (no student organizations allowed, no learning center, no study spaces, etc.) - "exempt" = no breaks, lunches, etc. - adjunct professors constantly promised full time employment but are told days before classes start they'll sit the semester out
