Pros

Positive mission that many employees stand behind.

Cons

Eliminating some positions with a Shared Services Center that is horrendously unhelpful and inefficient.

Amazing work environment complicated by troublesome administration

Pros

Coworkers are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and good at what they do - going to work every day is really, truly enjoyable Freedom to do my job as it needs to be done, without heavy top-down micro-management from immediate supervisors Flexibility in leave, vacation time, etc. Good opportunities for networking across the whole state

Cons

Budget cuts and unfilled positions mean employees have to constantly do more with less Little sense that administration actually cares about the people that work for them, especially the college-level faculty Rhetoric does not match reality; the organization claims to put students and faculty as its priority but in reality seems only to care about making employers happy Nonsensical decisions from top-level administration decreases quality of organizational events, while simultaneously managing to increase the cost of those events to the system (and taxpayers, by extension) and the workload on employees Limited sense of potential for career advancement Severe understaffing in some areas with no signs of essential positions being filled

Pros

The insurance is great but that’s all I can think of.

Cons

The management is terrible—out for themselves, incapable. People are never replaced when they leave, so, if one of your colleagues leaves, be prepared to just start handling their entire workload. And this will continue on and. Their management is literally corrupt and will run out anyone who doesn’t look away at the lies they tell the colleges they’re supposed to serve.
