Pros

Helping people learn and learning their stories is the most interesting part of the job.

Cons

Ivy Tech pays men more than women. Some supervisors are only in it for their own ego. Attrition is high! Burn-out is quick!

Pay does not match demands

Pros

At my particular campus, we had a great supervisor who advocated on our behalf frequently. However, this isn’t always the case and is dependent on the campus you work at and what department you’re in.

Cons

The college is becoming very demanding if you working as a faculty member or staff member that deals with students regularly. This is one of the reasons I quit my job. You’re asked to do way too much for not enough pay or, frankly, without enough time in the day. They are focused on numbers for enrollment but don’t necessarily care what happens to staff. Some campuses have high turn over.

Pros

About half the students were attentive and interacted with the material in a genuine way. Folks are generally nice. Access to printing facilities. 6am access to school, so I can prepare.

Cons

Teachers are forced to use the McGraw-Hill software, which is naturally constrictive in how content can be presented to students. Whoever decided to use this was not a biology teacher. In my small class, about half of students plagiarized each other or from an online source. This was after I asked them to PLEASE ask me for help on completing the assignment. "Don't wait until the last minute!" Sound familiar? Unusual grading percentage criteria that was subject-wide and campus-wide (I think, can't remember) - this was to cater to student complaints! Unless you're full-time and can be on campus to gossip around and whatnot, you will not be included in decision-making.
