Wave so long to your career at the alter of patronage and cliques - Senior Lecturer University of Chichester Employee Review

It is not based in North Korea, yet.

It lacks basic structures in some dept like action log, open calls for promotion and transparency. A lot of people promoted during a boom and lack depth, skills and experience which they try to overcome thru false niceties. They have favourites who normally are former students with higher rank colleagues "sponsorship". It is not a place for intellectual or academic development as any critical thinking or ideas are dismissed if you aren't part of a clique. Your CV won't matter, if they don't like the look of you you will be given tasks and modules which will stop your progression. Well, as long as someone is getting a got paycheck sod others.

Flexible working, pleasant atmosphere, small institution

Small institution, little ambition, poor publication history from the project. Little to no progression opportunity. Lack of management PDRs/performance reviews.
