Energizing place, but incredibly overworked staff - Anonymous employee Arizona State University Employee Review

Pros

Working in an academic setting is energizing, exciting and challenging. There are many ways to learn new things. Some of the people I work with are great.

Cons

Crow's philosophy of 'do more with less' - simply means 'hire fewer staff members while growing the rest of the organization.' That means staff carry a huge burden - often executing the tasks of several jobs. Few, and very small, pay raises. In our group, we are managed by faculty members who know nothing about what we do and are not experts in our fields. This makes for low morale, high turnover, and lots of stress. It's incredible how faculty members are not held to the same ethical and professional standards that staff are.

Pros

Great atmosphere and truly excellent benefits. Every day is a little different.

Cons

Need to wear a lot of different hats and understand both the academic and business sides, which can be challenging. Having to pay for parking.

Continuous monitoring of your work and your time on calls can feel intimidating, but overall, the staff is very supportive.
