Horrible Leadership Mandating a Fake Culture - Associate George Washington University Employee Review

Pros

The people I worked with for a number of years were amazing.

Cons

The new leadership under LeBlanc and Diaz is awful. Steer clear. They are pretending to create a culture of inclusion and transparency, but that is the furthest thing from the truth. They change their minds all the time and have no clue what a budget is - decisions are made on a whim and not strategic or intentional at all. They spent millions on a Disney Culture Initiative only to never follow the recommendations that were provided. Hiring practices are a joke and they just keep bringing in people from Miami at outrageously high salaries. That is the real reason they are having to do layoffs right now - they spent too much on people at the top who aren't doing anything to make the situation better.

Pros

Relaxed environment working directly with a professor

Pay Roll and access issues, got kicked off payroll I. The middle of a contract and delayed payment and work for 2 weeks based off of their system error.
