For-profit mindset, Christian mission marketing
Pros
- Students are great to work with - Peers in my workgroup are supportive, engaging, and make workdays fun - Mission of the institution is clearly understood by coworkers and all of us work together well - Direct report understands the overall role requirements and is supportive
Cons
Top-level leadership is totally disengaged from the reality of its staff’s experiences. No merit raises offered/can be expected here, nor are there any clear markers for career advancement. There has been no paid professional development in 5+ years from my department. While inflation has skyrocketed, COL adjustments do not increase apace. Duties for my position have increase by 20% while pay has plateaued. Work/life balance does not exist. If you take my salary and divide by the hours actually required to do quality work, it’s below minimum wage - despite 10+ years of experience in the field. If you are young/female/young and female, expect to make half your older white male colleagues’ wages, regardless of similar qualifications, talent level, effort, or experience
