PACT Counselor

Pact counselor

CEO approval

Pros

I really enjoyed my group of coworkers. The campus is nice and has a variety of food options for lunch.

Cons

The staff turnover rate is unbelievable, which allows for so much inconsistency within the workplace. The students can be very difficult to work with, particularly at the campuses in the boroughs. PACT counselor is a nice word for "the messenger". We act as the messenger in the majority of our roles and is no real room for leadership and creativity.

Buyer Beware-- Appalling Place to Work (Work for Another College)

Counselor

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

-- You may work with a nice and helpful team depending on the position. -- Minimal amount is required to pay for graduate education.

Cons

-- The academic adviser (PACT), financial aid and admission departments are the worst departments to work for and have high turnover. -- The management teams for each of the above departments are a joke. They lack real leadership and know-how. It is almost comical to see them in action (rather inaction). -- They hire poorly and are inept in cultivating staff. -- They promote based on unsound reasons. -- They browbeat the staff in producing fictitious results (i.e. registration, academic progress, career, graduation rates etc.) -- There is no advocacy for faculty and union members. -- The new president only cares about registration numbers and passing poor performing students along to make the board members happy. -- PR outright asked staff to not post negative reviews on Glassdoor. Read the positive reviews with a grain of salt.

Pros

Very progressive and noble educational mission. The current president listens and responds, and has brought a culture of integrity and respect back to Mercy at a critical time.

Cons

The assessment culture frenzy is in full swing, but this is the norm across all educational institutions
