AVOID THIS PLACE

Business Outlook

Pros

The benefits are alright and the location is nice. Some of the lower level staff are nice to work with.

Cons

Upper management seems to only care about bonuses and how much money they can get. This place has massive turnover and no ethics whatsoever! They managed to terminate most of the staff in the last several years even though they were a profitable non-profit. They didn't want to give severances or unemployment so they did this through yelling at staff and getting them to quit. This is a horrible place.

Some students are uneasy and feel they have been victimized, so that has to be dealt with to get the message across.
