Pros

Great Benefits. Nice people. Beautiful campus. The campus is in an easily accessible area of the city from Vandeventer, Lindell, or Highway 40. That is important for commute times.

Cons

Biondi has done great things for the university financially, but he is secretive and decisions are not explained. The ends are good and the means could be justified, but on the big issues, more transparency would be nice. The metro is not very safe so if you are using that to commute, be careful. It's relatively close to the center of campus, but expect a 10-15 minute walk.

Pros

The university offers a lot of opportunities that make the student experience very memorable, such as career treks, mock interviews, career fairs, and different engagement events and workshops.

Cons

Overall, the employee experience was challenging. The institution faced significant financial difficulties during my tenure, including recurring layoffs and no salary increases over a two-year period, which contributed to ongoing uncertainty and low morale. Leadership and communication were problematic particularly within my team. High turnover, limited transparency around staffing and role changes, workplace gossip, and unprofessional interpersonal dynamics. When a team loses more than 50% of its staff within a two-year span, it suggests deeper cultural and management issues that warrant attention. The physical work environment also presented challenges. Persistent heating and cooling problems resulted in office temperatures fluctuating dramatically from uncomfortably hot to excessively cold temperatures with little consistency from day to day. Lastly, compensation was a frequent concern among employees. Many staff members worked second jobs or actively sought opportunities elsewhere due to salaries that were not competitive with the market.
