Stay for the Free Education/Leave to get a Promotion

Pros

Beautiful campus, free education for employees, employees spouses and children, most of the employees and professors are sweet but frustrated longtime employees. Most of the really terrible administrators left during the Pandemic.

Cons

They teach organizational leadership there, but they don’t practice it. Administrative bulge is real. The lower level of workers and professors do the majority of work. You’ll need a masters to doctorate level education and about 10 years of work at the institution in order to be considered for promotion. Alternatively, you can be a mean person who likes to ream people out in person or via email in addition to being seriously inept and they like to promote those people. They let go of 100+ employees at the beginning of the pandemic. Not because of the pandemic, it was already in the works, but to quote a member of leadership, “why waste a good crisis?” They’ve gone through several years of reductions - in case you prefer to hire on somewhere where you get to sweat the existence of your job every.single.year. Leadership paid themselves large bonuses about a year after the last major reduction in force out of the PPP funds right before the new President onboarded.
