Pros

We have medical benefits for part-timers! We have free mental health and other benefits! Certain training is free. This is the best university for teaching part-time. They take care of the adjuncts, so the students are cared for. I love it!

Cons

There are no cons for this job.

Pros

Pro no, pro no, a pirates life for me...have I met the 20 word minimum yet? Now? Now? Now? Bingo.

Cons

I wrote to three different news outlets: Fox 5, NBC 10, and the Union Tribune, a very detailed email outlining the massive layoffs and the acts of the top one in charge, from when he started manifesting in his position to the current obstrocities, yet not one has responded. Anyone else find that a little suspicious? I have attempted multiple Google Searches, yet came up emtpy-handed. I no longer work at NU so those ridiculous non-disclosure agreements you all were forced to sign do not apply to me. Is someone paying these news outlets/Google off to keep his shady acts from going public? Oh and I also find it suspicious that a recent post on here (since the layoff) gave four stars...especially coming from someone in a entry level position. Either you're blind to what's really going on or....

Pros

Due to covid, we are now working remotely. Good coworkers, although I see them all leaving soon.

Cons

It appears a previous post was removed, because it called someone out by name, so it is being reposted with the specific name of the Associate Vice Chancellor of Learning Experience Innovation removed. -Underpaid for our work: average ID starts at 85k and this job pays much less. -Heavily micromanaged: logging in our hours for all projects, sharing all calendar details, and cameras must be on during Zoom meetings. -The AVC and her LSU cronies have made everyone's jobs horrible. It is unclear how she is getting away with this mistreatment. -We've been told that change is difficult and that the brain has a difficult time processing the unknown, but what's happening goes far beyond that logic. The current morale can't be blamed on neuroscience-it's because of the person you hired. -"Upskilling" unqualified workers isn't going to get you out qualified employees.
