A great place with great people mired with the constraints of being a state run entity - Anonymous employee Rutgers University Employee Review

Pros

If you enjoy working with young people this is a great environment. Everyday is different, every year brings new challenges, and your experiences continue to grow with every passing season. If you are driven to improve yourself the opportunity does exist to grow professionally.

Cons

As with any state institution there are elements of the University who want to put forth a minimal effort and get a maximal reward. There are many people who go above and beyond with everything that they do, but there are also those who only do enough to get by or who are constantly handing off their work to other people who are already overburdened.

Pros

co-workers are super nice, friendly and collaborative. Good flexibility in work arrangements. My immediate boss is nice.

Cons

Morale is quite low, and turnover is high. We are losing good people and goals are not being met. Senior Leader tell us to do more with less, and do not want constructive feedback. They don't lead by example, taking elaborate trips instead of being present and supporting staff. Rules don't apply to them. So disappointing, not what you would expect from a public university.
