Not worth the stress - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Virginia Tech

It's all about "advancement" now -- bringing in money -- rather than education. Employee wages, treatment, and benefits vary widely depending on the college or center. Low wages for staff employees; "faculty" positions -- whether teaching, research, or administrative -- have MUCH better pay and benefits (twice the annual leave and 26 weeks of full pay for sick leave/year versus eight days for staff!), and administrative faculty often have less education and experience than staff employees. Benefits such as teleworking and flexible hours are available to employees in some colleges but not others. No opportunity for professional development (no money to join professional associations or attend conferences). VT doesn't follow written policies regarding use of performance reviews or warnings to terminate employees but simply eliminates and renames positions.
