Pros
Excellent name on your resume
The students are amazing to work with
Your colleagues care about the work and are passionate about it
You get a lot of experience wearing many hats and therefore acquire different transferable skills
Cons
The salary is a little higher than average but it is still not equivalent to the cost of living in NYC
The annual raises can be quite small unless you get a promotion which then creates a lot of competition for promotions
Management can be antiquated in mindset, practices, and focus meaning lack of understanding for DEIB to implement with staff, being unclear about pathways to promotion, and lacking transparent with employees regarding decision making
