Pros

Solid Company, Great programs to offer students, Awesome people to work with, very professional setting

Cons

The new way of evaluating one's performance is horrific. Every phone call is recorded and you have to listen to it as they "rate" your ability to basically psychoanalyze a prospective student. If you work for the High School admissions department you have to work until 8 every night, off every Friday, and work EVERY Saturday until 4pm. That equals NO work/life balance. The assistant directors are afraid to stand up for their employees.It's an egotistical game between managers and upper management.
