    Approves of CEO

    I worked at Divers Institute of Technology full-time for more than 5 years

    Pros

    Some flexibility in hours. They pay for some training and continuation of certs.

    Cons

    We have always done it this way mentality. Good leadership is stifled by the higher leadership. MICROMANAGEMENT.

    Advice to Management

    Allow your instructors and assistants to do their jobs. If they meet the legal requirements, let them use their methods. They are professionals. It's actually why you hired them.
