Pros

Certain departments have very positive leadership, many coworkers are friendly and helpful.

Cons

Physical space is always an issue, most staff are shoved in corners of barely maintained buildings (the Sears building at River ridge, the second floor of the old factory now known as Green, the possibility of the Fort Hill building, etc) often with very limited space and no natural light. Upper administration is a web of family members, close friends of the Falwell's, and what appears from closer inspection to be a sort of popularity-based pecking order that changes quickly. Every few months either a major player is quietly fired and replaced or 'moved' with very little fanfare (most recently the CIO, but before that the director of Student Accounts, which has now rolled under Financial Aid). There are also a fair amount of conflicts of interest with upper leadership owning companies that Liberty subcontracts to. There is a culture of 'conform or go nowhere' that means that people are afraid to speak their mind. However good some of the lower and middle management are, there are certain things they can't fix.

Pros

The most supportive management group I have ever been a part of. The people who work there are amazing. You are encouraged to support your customers with prayer. Time off is incredible from the start. A lot of control where time is concerned

Liberty University does not allow overtime.
