Great place to work

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It is like working with a big family. WCU is a great place to work, the compensation is fair, there is job flexibility and support, and overall students are put first.

Cons

Things change fast and you have to be adaptable and able to move with the changes.

They're burning out faculty

Instructor

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Starting salary is good but they don't go up at same rates as other colleges nor to match inflation/gas so one ends up working multiple jobs and burn out and exhaustion is high. They're REALLY good at diversity and inclusion SORT OF they are taking advantage of instructors across the board with work hours versus salary and benefits and no time off.

Cons

They don't have great healthcare, tuition reimbursement, tuition discounts for attending even WCU. They don't have breaks and plaster a 4 day break each year with meetings. Way too much work for pay that doesn't increase to match the cost of living nor do they even come close to matching other colleges.

Few opportunities for growth

Business Outlook

Pros

Good for those just starting out. The team I work for is great. Very diverse employee population for the area.

Cons

Few growth opportunities. Average pay. People are siloed and teams don't communicate or coordinate across the company. A good place to start a career, but a lot of turnover.
