Pros

- Talented, experienced instructors who genuinely care about student outcomes - Opportunities to coach and influence early-career engineers Good work life balance - Curriculum foundation is solid and can be improved with effort - Some opportunity to shape classroom experience

Cons

- Leadership consistently fails to manage their only client account, choosing to appease requests rather than consult, often ignoring the advice of experienced transformation coaches - No real transformation experience at the leadership level; they treat enterprise engagements like a classroom checklist - Zero focus on business development and the future is uncertain - Poor communication and inconsistent expectations - Structural support is missing, yet micromanagement shows up in the wrong places - Favoritism and blurred lines between personal and professional relationships at the leadership level
