Pros

Competetive salary, easy life style and great benefits

Cons

the college board functions by having 1-3 people in a department working very hard managing the day-to-day operations and then having the rest of team work on "special" intitatives, projects and campaigns that really do not accomplish much. This is a place where you walk into the departments and instantly can tell real work is not being done. Its very common not to hear a phone ring or even hear typing for an hour on an entire floor - all you hear is mouse clicks.
