Howard Community College reviews

The management and leadership at HCC preach teamwork and community but are the furthest thing. They continuously add more work to their smaller employees and not even know the processes of what they are asking them to do. I have seen many times first hand individuals get hired for a position that they did not have the qualifications for and then expect the P/T workers to train them. Throughout the year job descriptions were changed and more duties were added with hours being taken and no compensation. Hourly employees were expected to work outside of their contract hours and did not get compensated for those hours. The "training" that new employees go through is embarrassing and is not clearly explained at all, they really throw you to the wolves and then give you more duties you were never trained on. During the pandemic, HCC went even more downhill, micromanaging the employees to see what they are doing every minute of the day takes time from doing their actual work. When I was confused on a process, I was ignored and ended up figuring it out on my own or having to ask another department. Processes and policies were changed on the daily with little to no communication to the rest of the staff and expected to implement them that day just for it to all be changed again in a couple days. HCC focuses on hiring from within or hiring females that align with their out dated ideas regardless of the qualifications. Leaving HCC has shown me how management in a college should be and

None at the moment hopefully a decent raise.
