Pros
the students are very nice, and most of the staff and faculty are nice. Mission College is close to some good restaurants.
Cons
HR can't handle problems beyond time off. The staff is generally the first group to take cuts as they are not tenured, like faculty. For staff, if you want to move into another job, you must go through the entire interview process- they do not promote from within. (Newly open jobs are first available to current staff, but the interview process is lengthy and includes the EXACT SAME job application as when you first applied.) As with most California colleges, the entire college system needs an overhaul, but WVMCCD won't be the ones to lead that charge. Fact: when a faculty member gets reviewed they set up their own review committee.
