Business outlook
Pros
Flexible schedule, good work / life balance, great benefits like their employer contribution to the 403b plan and most jobs are pretty secure no matter what you do; mostly Webster is full of good people - they're just not given the opportunity to innovate and succeed
Cons
Current management lacks courage to make the hard, necessary, strategic decisions for any higher ed institution to succeed in the 21st century; the academic affairs division is the biggest and functions most like a silo, stifling innovation; there have been some pockets of leaders trying to do right by their people, but mostly it's stuck in a rut of hierarchy and bureaucracy
