Pros

Generous time off and holidays (including time off between Christmas and New Years). Great retirement, tuition reimbursement and attend WPI classes for free and medical plans.

Cons

lack of growth opportunities, decision process is very slow, top down and management heavy. Very difficult to get a promotion as you are entered into a pool of every department.

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.
