Great School, Awful Employer - Office Assistant University of Rochester Employee Review

Pros

If you are poking around for the reputation of U of R, then rest assured that the faculty are some of the best.

Cons

Very slow to adapt to technology. Top level management have been sitting in their positions for years--there is a limit to how far you can advance in this company. CEO and President Seligman is running the whole show into the ground. Between gentrifying the ward and his pet projects (ex. he bought a ferry for river tours; had to sell it after 2 years), he needs to go SOON. Management is eager to fire you; they document every interaction and you're screwed if you don't submit letters documenting your perspective too.

Pros

Hybrid work schedule and supportive direct supervisor

Cons

You name it, they've got it. Just decimated their benefits. Overlook staff. Use "internal equity" as an excuse to underpay. Problem with job suppression.
