      Pros

      A phenomenal college for music. Located in the center of Boston and provides competitive salaries. Administrative staff very supportive and world class faculty. Vibrant performing arts community, great student body and with the merger with the Boston Conservatory, a wide breath of performing arts.

      Cons

      Recent changes has made it challenging. A merger has required some position eliminations, changes in job descriptions, and restructuring. Chalk it up to growing pains.

      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
