Vantaggi

Students are the only reason to work here. They rock.

Svantaggi

This is a place that does not value employees. There is an inverted pyramid with top heavy management using a dictatorial top-down style of management. The culture is actually toxic. The management is pretty clueless about the strategic imperatives and focuses on petty turf-protecting infighting. Hard to find a worse bunch anywhere. Nobody gets a second chance, there is a pervasive atmosphere of fear. This used to be a decent place to work, now it is horrible. Roger Brown should go back to managing money at his hedge funds, he knows little to nothing about music, academics, or managing people. The board of trustees and advisors is a bunch of paper pushing suits that have no connection to the music industry.

-helping students -talking about music

Svantaggi

-forced to train the ai bot that will replace you -despite being the top performer on your team and being reassured repeatedly your job is secure, you will get laid off with no explanation or respect -c suite prefers to keep their 500k+ salaries and 80k+ bonuses even if it means laying off 80+ employees who only make 55k -CEO led first layoffs in berklee's entire history, no transparency with any managers, no discussion or anything -CEO used money "saved" from layoffs to give other employees bonuses and buy unnecessary property
