      Pros

      The team was great, most everyone below executive level was dedicated to delivering the best educational experience they could given the available resources.

      Cons

      Executive leadership was prone to taking risky bets and buying whatever marketing snake oil they were offered by third party consultants. This led to some dramatic wins for sure, but no preparation for those halcyon 'gold rush' days to end and they had to get back to the business of running a small college in a difficult marketplace.

        Pros

        The staff and faculty were very welcoming and it was encouraged by everyone to be a part of the community.

        Cons

        Had an Interim President for a year and then the leadership (above the president) decided to shut down this branch of the university.

      Project Manager

      I interviewed with a company (2 interviews of 1h each) more than 15 days ago. In the company's portal my application shows as "in progress" and I haven't heard back from anyone (HR or interviewers). Is this normal?

      Manager

      When sending a post interview follow up email to a hiring manager, is it appropriate to address the manager by first name, or is it more appropriate to use Mr. or Ms. X (assuming they have not invited you to address them informally and that their gender identity is clear)

      How do i phrase it on an interview why I'm leaving my current employer after only 4mos due to not being comfortable with the company ethics on how they handle some things? The only reason I am mentioning my current employer on my resume is I want to apply for the same position at a competitor I know is more ethical (confirmed by employees). I don't have much background in this position so I feel putting it down is important when I normally would not for positions held for less than 6 months.
