Pros

Mostly everyone: -wants to collaborate -feels purpose with the organization -cares about colleagues My direct supervisor is fantastic. Very supportive, flexible, personable, interested in my growth, innovative, collaborative, and empowering. My supervisor makes a point to ensure I am okay and have what I need to succeed. The benefits are fair. Work/life balance and flexibility are encouraged. I felt the on boarding process was simple. I have all the tools I need to do my job well. The leadership team seems genuinely interested in the well being of staff. John O'Brien is authentic and engages with the staff consistently which adds of level of making the organization feel closer. -

Cons

Silos are definitely an issue but that's every organization so it's not a unique con. Decision making can be slow, but decisions aren't made in a vacuum and are fully vetted. That is appreciated even if it can be slow. The annual merit structure does not account for inflation to ensure staff aren't making less money each year which is a little odd. A guaranteed 2%-3% each year to at least keep pace with inflation seems like the norm.

Pros

Remote work opportunities promotes work-life balance

Cons

A position was posted on a Tuesday. I applied the following Monday. One month later the job site STILL shows the application window open - as "closing soon”, yet, I was sent a rejection letter stating they "received a fair number of applications by the time I applied {again, just 4 business days later} and are evaluating those early applicants and proceeding to interview them. Should we need additional applicants, we will include yours in the next round." What kind of an employer does this, especially one associated with Higher Education? Common practice is to review ALL applicants upon closing of the application process, weed out those that do not meet the desired qualifications, and then begin the interview selection process. Why on earth would they basically throw out any or all potential well-qualified candidates simply because they received “a fair number already”?!? Sketchy to say the least.

Pros

I’ve only worked here a couple of months but already I’m so glad to be here. Left a really toxic work environment and it’s refreshing to be here around people who obviously care about the mission. Remote work is valued alongside office work, which is great to see.

Cons

So far, it’s been really good. No complaints, and the people are really great.
