      Pros

      Pay wasn't bad, internal systems were pretty good too. Some of the people are great.

      Cons

      Poor management structure and no conflict resolution. Benefits are actually awful. So I advise anyone looking at this, don't just look at the pay, look at the PTO time, holidays, cost of healthcare, etc. Its below standard in Higher Ed.

      Pros

      This is a great experience and my team was excited to work with undergrads. I learned a lot and participated in stand up meetings.

      Cons

      It really varies based on your team and how much experience you are able to contribute. Sometimes the teams don't have a clear role for you or there's a lack of communication.
