Pros

amazing benefits (403b w 11% match) good healthcare free cell phone and gym membership excellent PTO

Cons

-1% raises are a JOKE -not much room for advancement -change takes forever -CIO was hired because of knowing someone in HR. She has an impressive resume otherwise, but I feel like she is not qualified for the job and was picked to please executive management and cut funding to our department -strong likelihood department will be outsourced in the near future. I would not recommend working here

Pros

Can be pretty easy if most of your work is office hours. I had about seven hours a week and most of the time there weren't many students.

Cons

Grading was a lot harder than I expected. Pretty demoralizing honestly; a lot of clearly ChatGPT submissions (ECE programming class mostly with freshmen who'd never seen code before, so not surprising). Grading paper exams was fine.
