This review concerns the Seattle campus but work (literally) anywhere else.

Pros

Hours are flexible for part-time employees.

Cons

I would not work here again for the following reasons: 1. Dave Thurman (Dean and CEO) treated part-time hourly employees and security staff differently/with disrespect throughout the duration of my employment. Dave Thurman's classist and racist attitude did not go unnoticed. 2. They will never promote you, even if they possess the resources to do so. I was not allowed to work more than 30 hours a week (even though they were understaffed) because they didn't want to give me benefits.
