Pros

Overall work/life balance. Team and direct co-workers.

Cons

National Leadership is disconnected from what their instructors' challenged are. They want a ridiculous "80% certification rate / 85%" graduation rate." Helping the public with these goals is only attainable when the resources make sense, which have only been reduced since my tenure. This is all across the board for all departments. As of today, a " Progressive Discipline Policy" has been enacted. For instructors who don't hit the number of 80%+, you will be terminated. If we don't go FAR above and beyond any organization I've worked for, your job is in jeopardy.

Pros

The Houston Team is amazing! Felt really supported and inspired by great local management.

Cons

There are metrics that you must meet to keep your job as any position. So, you have to make sure you don't lose sight of Certification rates they could become more challenging but they can be achieved.
