Pros

I worked with some very nice people. It is management that is at fault for failing to provide a decent education and for scamming students who do not know any better into taking out huge debts to attend.

Cons

I did not realize how much of scam for-profit institutions are until I worked here. Everything is driven only by profit. Any benefit the students get is from the independent initiative of the faculty (who are rarely tenured). I feel guilty for having worked at an institution that has such little regard for the well-being of others. Students take on massive debt to get a degree that is all but worthless and a crash course in remedial subjects.
