Pros

Decent amount of PTO, free parking

Cons

This college makes it clear that you are just a cog in the money machine. Upper administration lacks transparency and makes poor, uninformed, thoughtless, and unethical decisions, and they are not open to new ways of doing things. Poor fiscal management and greed led them to open too many campuses that they can't fill, so they are laying off many, yet they promote people who are vastly unqualified and continue to spend money on things like "all college day," which is basically just an expensive event to give announcements. And if you are faculty or student, be forewarned that they are rapidly moving towards hiring primarily adjunct faculty because they are cheaper, and adjuncts are not treated well. They allow bullies to prosper and micromanage everything, yet never seem to be well organized or on top of things in a productive way. Communication is abysmal. The number of articles about the institution in the media, including the national media, and lawsuits lodged against the administration in just the last 3 years should be enough to suggest that there is corruption at hand. If you want to work somewhere where your knowledge and contributions are truly valued, and where you feel supported and paid well, you really should look elsewhere. It is a soul-sucking place to work.
