Friendly co-workers, students seem happy
Svantaggi
The students were the only saving grace but after a while, that gives way to self preservation. - Major lack of management training, hence the unprofessionalism. - Promises either forgotten or flat out not kept: GET IT IN WRITING. ANY notifications you give or get, from interview on, get it in writing. - Non competitive salary - Non competitive benefits ( Ex: Paid vacation=2 days after 1 yr; 3 days after 2 yrs; etc.) [ Apparently this changed in the last couple of weeks so ask] - MAJOR MICRO-MANAGEMENT that may include cameras in offices. - MAJOR MICRO-MANAGENT -An Opressive work environment partially due to the above but also because the above seems to be mandated from one person. One way or the highway. - That lack of automomy supersedes even your own demonstrated ability to do your own job. You will be Micro-Managed. Possibly by someone who may not be qualified to do so. Go figure. - Unclear direction of the school as a whole; management didn't know what kind of results they were expecting which leads to unnecessary pressure. - Nepotism is strong. ( Ex: Family members head most departments and possibly more than one dept.) I was warned early on that if it ever came between me or a family member that the family member will come out on top. Great intro to a new position huh? - No tuition discount for employees' families, despite years of service - Appreciation is given as an afterthought. Usually in the form of some certificate or other. - Raises were hard fought for. Even when previously discussed and promised. Again, writing... - No training process to speak of. - CRM created in house and very UN-user friendly. They keep adding to it (patching) but it continues to be inefficient which leads to more frustration.
