Reviews about "ithaca"
Return to all Reviews- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
I like the beautiful parks and trails of Ithaca.
Cons
Can get really cold during winter.
- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Fantastic institution to work at in Ithaca. It's great to be part of such an engaging and collaborative community working towards the goal of educating students to be lifelong learners and innovators. As an employee, you have access to incredible benefits like retirement plan, investment options, healthcare, gym (still charge for access), and courses.
Cons
In higher education administration sometimes the needs of the office outweigh your professional interests so you should be aware of your long-term goals and stay committed to doing the work you want to do to keep growing as a professional in your desired field
- Former Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
It's a well-respected institution, and of course beautiful Ithaca. Great food options in the neighborhood. Regular transportation to NYC with Cornell Bus.
Cons
For people of color, departments are a hit or miss. Expect to work with those Dr. MLK describes as the white liberal who clogs the wheels of progress. They attend every protest, but while be the most microaggressive , fragile white folks you will meet if you call it out. They also put PoC in strategic leadership as a way to silence other PoC - a mystery. Apporach at your own risk.
