Pros
A good set of colleagues who truly want to do great work and progress the mission forward, unfortunately you are too often road blocked by administration. Location is great if you like outdoors
Cons
Overall the organization is reactive and not proactive, no forward thinking or money invested into systems/process improvements. These processes are archaic, times have changed folks! Leadership is lacking across the college. Terrible supervisors are kept while its a revolving door of employees. The college can solve the problems by actually listening to employee complaints instead of brushing them off. They settle lawsuits and don't solve the root cause of the issue, it's just onto the next thing. Staff are not respected, all the decisions are based on what faculty and students want, staff are bottom of the barrell. The college cries broke all the time, but they have plenty of money but choose not to allocate it to staff salaries, it's a disgrace. It's clear they don't respect staff employees at all. Staff compensation is horrendous, unfair and unethical. The only way to ensure you are getting paid fairly is if the professional staff unionized, just like University of Vermont did recently.
