Pros

Truly exceptional students, general sense of collegiality between staff and wanting to help students succeed. Pay is good for higher ed in the area, awesome tuition benefits. Campus is very walkable and convenient to downtown. Parking is free for staff!

Cons

Some really toxic dynamics in upper management that trickle down to entry-level staff. If you go to HR with a problem, they will gossip about it or try to hush it up, so you're on your own if you have the misfortune of being caught in the middle of one of these power struggles.
