Good for Faculty, bad for Staff - Recensione dipendente - Software Developer presso Vanderbilt University

Extremely political work environment. More time is spent making yourself look like you're making progress than actually making progress. Management loves to brag about "open-minded" culture, but it couldn't be further from the truth. Terrible hierarchy where faculty are treated like royalty and staff are expendable. Any attempts to improve efficiency are shot down in order to create more work. The worst part is the haughty attitude everyone seems to have about it all. Prestige and popularity is more important than results.
