Business Outlook
Pros
You will LOVE working at JMU -- If you work with one of the offices that fall under Student Services, or Athletics, or if you are a faculty member. If you are not taking a job in one of those areas, you will not like working at JMU.
Cons
Old-boy network and bullying are rampant across some pockets of the JMU administration / departments. A good portion of advertising for "new hires" for new positions is only advertised within the JMU community, and existing part-time staff members get those jobs. Human Resources has no one to represent for "staff members." The staff's HR omsbudman position was deleted. There is only one EEO officer for the entire university, which employs more than 4,000 faculty and staff members.
