Medical Center is a Nightmare - Main Campus much better! - Program Coordinator Georgetown University Employee Review

Pros

Great benefits - especially the tuition benefits. Experience at GU highly depends on department/school you land in. Main campus had a much better culture than medical center so I'd advise staying away from the med center.

Cons

Low salary, bureaucratic, zero training coupled with high expectations to get acclimated quickly, not supportive of employees who are also students, poor communication amongst departments and managers to employees, thankless job that can wear morale down because no matter how many hours you put in you're still failing.

Pros

Job security throughout budget cuts happening in the public health industry currently. Plenty of PTO and holiday paid leave.

Cons

Constant threats by upper management to "write us up/disciplinary action" for anything. Director is really unfair/disrespectful/condescending to our supervisor and so that trickles down to data coordinators. For example currently there is a threat that we will be "written up" if we do not meet all the competing deadlines. Ive seen sooo people many come and go in this sector over the past 3 years its insane. Its alot of data to manually enter and one must be organized /driven and on top of your game but it gets borring if your not passionate about the cancer trials you are working on.
