Is this your company?

Your leader sets the tone and the quality of leaders at Emory varies wildly. - IT Manager Emory University Employee Review

Pros

Business casual dress code. Pay is better than many other area universities. Good retirement benefits, as long as you contribute at least a little bit (1.5%) for the match. Courtesy scholarship. Willing to spend money on equipment and services to get big jobs done. Health insurance is decent, but not as great as it once was.

Cons

Pay is decent for a university, but far below what you could get elsewhere. Courtesy scholarship has no value if your supervisor won't let you take the time to use it. Not willing to spend money on people - Little to no raises over the last 5 years. Crippling lack of big picture vision in lower and mid level management. Health insurance costs and co-pays increasing, choices for providers decreasing. Parking is very limited and very expensive - unsubsidized. Mass transit options are a joke. Staff have no input into the review process for their leaders so bad leaders are often immune to their own mistakes and good leaders may fall victim to bad leaders at higher levels of the organization.
