Svantaggi
-Travel to sometimes the middle of nowhere M-F with no real flexibility. Be prepared to get home late Friday nights. -Management expects a lot of face time at the campuses. Most of the work can be done remotely. It is unnecessary to travel to campuses for 5 weeks per audit when all documentation is received electronically anyway. -Top-down hierarchy and micromanagement. -Their way is the only right way to do things. Don't bring any new suggestions or ideas, just nod your head and agree with everything. -Paragraphs of word-by-word interview notes are expected. No bullet points with main ideas because efficiency is frowned upon. -Getting caught up in little insignificant details rather than looking at the big picture.
