Money cant be a factor

Pros

You make an important difference in the lives of those who are new to the college experience whether they are just getting out of high school, going for their education after raising kids, or trying to get back into their 4 year college. You change lives.

Cons

The school is so focused on numbers that you spend a great deal of your time tracking statistics, calling people on lists, and worrying about things that are not really what you are there to do ....advise students. And the big colleges dont make you do this. And the pay is low given what is expected.

Pros

Working with students in the classroom is great.

Cons

Faculty are extremely overworked and underpaid. Faculty are micromanaged and not valued as professionals. There is no job security beyond a 9 month contract.

Pros

Fantastic co-workers who really care about students. Excellent benefits- free classes for you and your family, retirement contribution, and fantastic dental insurance (I cannot speak to the health insurance as I did not use it).

Cons

Horrible management, and you will be worked to the bone. Management provides pressure for quotas despite this being a non-profit institution. Policies are enforced haphazardly, often to the detriment of both the student and the advisor. The low-to-mid level employees WANT to help students, but management creates policies that set students up to fail. 50 hour weeks on a 35K salary with no signs for a salary increase or readily available advancement within the company.
