Pros

Somewhat higher salary compared to other universities but with a much higher workload.

Cons

- Quality of education not important to upper management. Pleasing students takes priority. Content classes often expected to be oversimplified so students can easily pass. - Professors pressured into teaching courses they are not qualified to teach, thus saving the university money by not having to hire professionals with appropriate backgrounds - HR recognizes only a tiny fraction of achievements (book publishing, course creation, etc.) by professors. - HR refuses to give any feedback for improvement from its evaluations. - Administration micromanages and is punitive instead of constructive in its approach to problem solving. - Administration is not interested in addressing student concerns about quality of education, only about collecting tuition. - Many students are used to perform administrative tasks (unpaid) in lieu of their courses.

Pros

Salary is average for industry, opportunities to do work outside of ones expertise (personal growth), some really nice colleagues

Cons

Terrible management, faculty teach classes without any expertise or knowledge in subjects they just show interest in the topic, TA’s run the school and there is very little support for international students, way too many teaching hours - 5 classes per professor each semester, workplace politics is worse than any other university, “Deans of colleges” and department chairs typically only have a masters degree and came from low level industry jobs, the education level provided to students is very bad, no room for growth or promotions, no funding or support for research. This school is owned by a family and they only care about money.
