      Pros

      Pretty good benefits - generous PTO, decent 403b match, and free tickets to local attractions. Extra perks if you're a musician - access to college facilities such as ensemble spaces and practice rooms. Yearly cost of living increase is nice.

      Cons

      Pay isn't great. Morale took a nose dive after the Boston Conservatory merger announcement. Career progressions is often times based on other people leaving or leveraging politics/favoritism.

      Pros

      -helping students -talking about music

      Cons

      -forced to train the ai bot that will replace you -despite being the top performer on your team and being reassured repeatedly your job is secure, you will get laid off with no explanation or respect -c suite prefers to keep their 500k+ salaries and 80k+ bonuses even if it means laying off 80+ employees who only make 55k -CEO led first layoffs in berklee's entire history, no transparency with any managers, no discussion or anything -CEO used money "saved" from layoffs to give other employees bonuses and buy unnecessary property
