Pros

The location & mission The most recent reviews were likely written by people in leadership who are trying to boost the glassdoor rating for potential new hires. This isn't a pro but there was a five word minimum.

Cons

Lack of experienced professionals in leadership positions Backbiting culture Lack of diversity (look at the staff page) Difficulty retaining talent (look at the number of job openings... these aren't new roles) Lack of org goals & vision Continued support for Michael McCullough, who consistently makes students uncomfortable
