Pros

Students are diverse, from all walks of life and this is a mission-driven organization.

Cons

Each of the Seattle Colleges (North, Central, South and District Office) operates in siloes with sometimes active animosity. Leadership seems invested in reputation/preserving the status quo/their small empires rather than changing the culture and quality of education.

Pros

Several people at the campus and district are great resources. There is always an opportunity to ask questions when confusion seems to be drowning you.

Cons

The organization draws a blind eye to claims of clear bullying and distasteful behavior amongst staff. The organization lacks clear guidance and structure. They hire leadership that lacks basic general knowledge and skills that are required for basic positions.
