Pros

Great faculty and staff. Nice facilities. Beautiful environment.

Cons

Where do I start? Low pay, especially considering the hours put in. I taught technology and worked typically from 9:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. M-Th and put in a lot of time on Fridays and the weekends for meetings and continuous prep. Last year, I tracked my hours = 2375 for a 9-month contract. I love teaching, but received continuous snarky remarks from supervisor over the 4 years. For example, I arrived late to an 8 a.m. Friday meeting after having taught until 9 p.m. on Thursday. Was docked 1 1/2 hours of sick time (by the way, this is illegal). Quit in continuous frustration with verbal abuse and crappy management. Horrid environment .. the worst I've been associated with in 35 years. Way to go CCC!

Rewarding job helping students; Horrid politics internally though.

Pros

-Coworkers (!) -Helping community/students -Hours -Benefits are very good for Flagstaff

Cons

-Demanding faculty who act like the students they teach (most have only had this job after college so they lack experience in the real world) -State/County budget issues result in short-staffed departments (most can only put out fires - there's no ability to plan because you're busy just keeping things afloat) -Cliques of faculty glom together to force changes they want, disregarding others' views -Administration doesn't have a clear picture of what's happening at the direct-student-contact-level -Managers (called "Directors") are all friends. They will not consider dissenting views from anyone lower than them. -Pigeon-holed into positions (several staff members can't move to other areas of the college b/c of personal opinions of their managers and/or because the manager doesn't want to lose the person, so they get stuck in a dead-end job)

Pros

Decent salary, good people who work there.

Cons

Are not supportive or loyal to long-time staff and employees. Are ridiculously bureaucratic to the point that nothing gets done. President is disconnected from Flagstaff community and people who work under her.
