      Pros

      Fantastic school, incredible team, germane programs.

      Cons

      Old-guard "good old boys" masculine culture, especially around jazz. This "cultural" norm is used as an excuse for sexism, racism, and discrimination. Networks with top musicians often depend on students not reacting to offensive comments and actions.

      Pros

      -helping students -talking about music

      Cons

      -forced to train the ai bot that will replace you -despite being the top performer on your team and being reassured repeatedly your job is secure, you will get laid off with no explanation or respect -c suite prefers to keep their 500k+ salaries and 80k+ bonuses even if it means laying off 80+ employees who only make 55k -CEO led first layoffs in berklee's entire history, no transparency with any managers, no discussion or anything -CEO used money "saved" from layoffs to give other employees bonuses and buy unnecessary property
