However, there is an anti-technology mindset which can be tough for IT morale. Not a lot of room for growth either, as the company has moved to external vendors for their systems."

"I've worked for Tufts University since 2012 as a teaching assistant. I found teaching very rewarding. However, deep down in my heart I've always had a passion for programming and developing new software and apps, which allows me to exercise my creativity."
