Shoestring Budget with Endless High Dollar Donations Coming in to Hide It

Pros

Beautiful campus, decent benefits, good place to raise a family.

Cons

Pay is rough for non administration. When there is a capital project, there are numerous donors they can call to make it happen, but when faced with a shortage of manpower or lack of willingness to pay market rate, blame always shifts back to the employee. An extremely white space that is trying to pay lip service to diversity despite reportedly hostile atmosphere to the few minorities they have and employ.

Pros

my team is great and interacting with students is meaningful work

Cons

Miami's values and those of the administration are in question. They do not treat their employees with care.

Pros

-Good benefits (health insurance, dental, vision, OPERS, vacation, sick leave, tuition waiver) for staff. -Depending on department, flexible hours are available -Alot of good, down to Earth people from middle management down to the front line staff. -Hard-working, dedicated, veteran people in specific departments (HDRBS, PFD) that are willing to show new staff how to do the job the right way.

Cons

-Upper-level/senior management for major departments (HDRBS, PFD) don't communicate well and don't know what the average employee does on a daily basis. -Lack of leadership from senior management -Labor shortages are becoming the norm (doing more with less) -Lack of quality training programs means loss of new hires within a year (no retention of quality hires) -Staff don't feel appreciated from senior management (no acknowledgement of good work) -Senior management only comes around when there is a problem. -Fair compensation but could be better when compared to other colleges/universities
