Georgetown University reviews

When the pandemic hit, they forced departments to volunteer one or more lower-level staff members to serve as the guards who were checking people at building entrances during the pandemic shutdown. You could either accept the role or go on unpaid leave for about 4 months. You weren't paid extra and you were expected to perform your normal job in addition to 20 hours of guarding the entrances. Absolutely horrific treatment of staff. Do not recommend working here. The pay is also one of the lowest among the universities in the area, and instead of providing merit raises, everyone gets standard 2% raises depending on the whim of the finance office that year. If you want to get a real raise, you have to go out and get a competing offer, and they will only match, not beat, your competing offer.
