Good job in higher education

Business Outlook

Pros

The college district changed its organization and is now one big college with multiple college campuses in North Texas. This change addressed a lot of issues and led to more uniform processes. The college serves students better now. The new structure is more efficient and streamlined. Co-workers are always willing to assist and connect you to the correct people when needed. Compensation for all roles is fair. Full-time employees receive a lot of benefits and can even take college courses for free or for reduced tuition elsewhere.

Cons

The restructuring has made the organization let go a major part of their workforce. There is still things that need to be worked out because f the restructuring.

Business Outlook

Pros

My colleagues are supportive and the reason I’m still sane.

Cons

Since becoming “one college” (on 7 distinct campuses, faculty can no longer rely on teaching extra classes (extra service) to make up for our dismally low salaries We were recently told that extra service is a “privilege,” not a “right” as the administration set us up for not being able to teach the number of sections we’d previously taught. I was hired within the past few years, and though I had 16+ years of higher education teaching experience (full-time), they said they could only compensate me for 8-10 years’ experience as the new hiring policy capped out experience. I can’t afford to pay rent on my base salary.
