Pros

You have a job, you think you're in education, you think you're doing something great. They are student-centric to the extent that they will help students who are keeping up NCLEX scores.

Cons

Pay - if you calculate how much you work and what you're making, half your salary. Deans struggle with mental health because they are so rattled and overworked. Nursing pay starts at well over six figures but they'll lowball you so ask for at least 150K without graduate work. You will never have time off (not even while sick). Work life balance doesn't exist and people are scared to do more than wait until a major life event happens. Most faculty have not taken vacation in a decade. Other educational systems know it's for-profit and exploitive so it doesn't help that much on a resume. No time to apply outside. I can't with good conscience recommend this company to anyone. You'll need to use your hospital (second job) for healthcare and retirement.
