Pros

UNEX has really great benefits with time off, health. People are good people who just want to get the job done but also try to make it a fun working environment. Made good friend with co-workers. Westwood is a great location.

Cons

Difficult to have job growth here. Dean is trying to do too much all at once and has made extremely poor business decisions. He claims he is transparent and is open to feedback but he has already made up his mind. Tries to do everything at once without slowing down and truly executing each project thoughtfully and carefully. Yet, he will not take any accountability for any of these actions. Marketing strategy doesn't know what they're doing.

Pros

It depends department by department but in my specific department, the co-workers are great.

Cons

Higher administration keeps on making changes without consulting the academic staff. Additionally, keeps on hiring people for non-revenue generating departments and yet won't hire more people for revenue-generating departments. Also fired a bunch of people with no notice and also no contingency plan in place. They made changes to the student advisors and hired people who are incompetent to manage the new student advisors. They always ask the same questions and are so lazy in trying to look up the information themselves. They also love to micro-manage and the lack of quality student advisors has really impacted enrollment in the courses. I am one of the lucky few that were able to move up within the organization but that is not true for most people in this company. Most people stay in the same position for years.
