Arizona State University reviews

I was significantly overworked, and underpaid. I bent over backwards for my boss and was not compensated for my work.

Each individual department has their own culture and management. The environment allows anyone in a management position to abuse their position be it control, abuse, lack of work...etc. I have worked in SEVERAL departments and have only had one director/manager that was great and an example of how the rest of ASU should function. There is an obscene amount of office politics. If you do not kiss butts your not getting anywhere. Additionally, others that treat fellow workers/employees like crap are never punshied or talked to (depending on the office). I personally had a serious allegation I brought up and it was brushed under the rug since the individual is high up in administration. That was the straw the made me leave after so long. The quality of management has significantly declined. I wish there were a cohesive way to ensure employee rights are not infringed on. The hard part about working at ASU is that it really depends on who you encounter. Not every department is is same. There are a bad bunch of employees that set the stage for the rest and the good ones are pushed out either through treatment or pay.
