Decent place to work

Pros

Decent culture, cool concerts and decent benefits. People are generally nice and being in a creative college can at times, be inspiring.

Cons

Clash between the old and new, as innovative as the college claims to be, too many managers are resistant to change. The people who work the most seem to get paid less than the ones who come into the office 2-3 times a week.
