              Business Outlook

              Pros

              I loved what I did. Helping the students was very rewarding. The managers and director of the advising department were great and really cared about the advisors. Also, they tried to make employees feel valued. Loved everyone in the department I worked in. If it wasn't for the pay, I would have stayed.

              Cons

              The rising expectations of workload and overtime hours for little to no salary raises were unsustainable. Other departments can be quite rude as well.

                      What is going on with this new practice. You apply for a job get confirmation for it etc. And then you get e message directly from the company that you just applied for and they are like if you would like to apply for this position follow this link?! This keeps happening how does it make any kind of sense?

                      Leasing Manager

                      I recently received a Job offer. I accepted it verbally in order for them to send me the official offer letter.It does match everything they described to me (based on salary, sign on bonus, & relocation assistance.) However the question I have is should i attempt to negotiate for a higher base salary? When speaking to my parents about it they told me that the time for negotiation is over as I accepted the offer as it stands and they sent it to me.
