Advancement not really supported by management If you are not a favorite it is hard getting the right opportunities to develop and grow management has their own agenda, too worried about their next move rather than helping you get to yours DOES NOT PAY FOR SCHOOL IN SOME DEPARTMENTS, be sure to ask how many people that department has agreed reimburse school in the past 3 years.
