Top Review Highlights by Sentiment
- Former Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Easy, flexible, was able to webcam other students I mentored for safety measures in not getting Covid.
Cons
There really were none. Highly recommend.
- Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
The education sector is going through critical times due to low enrolling numbers.
Dec 19, 2022 - Staff AccountantRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Offers hybrid work; one day in the office and remote work the rest. Plenty of days off. Able to balance life and work.
Cons
Salary raises have been frozen, high employee turnover rate, a lack of proper training, and added responsibilities to fill in for vacant posts.
- Current Employee, more than 8 years★★★★★
Pros
Small classes; low student faculty ratio. Beautiful historic campus.
Cons
Overworked, under-appreciated, underpaid faculty. As faculty members leave they are not replaced, making the workload for those who remain intolerable. Faculty morale is low, coupled by fear of school going under. (Sale of property and buildings has made this feeling worse.) Shared governance is a myth. School depends on athletics to populate dorms and prop up student numbers. Over time has become a commuter school with gradually lowering admission requirements.

Training is Not Provided Here
May 31, 2022 - Education SpecialistRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
The opportunity to work with very good and motivated students as they progress through their skills and goals. Students are probably the best part of the job! Campus is probably the safest and most beautiful. Definitely check out Macauley Chapel if you have the chance. Unlimited ice cream at the cafeteria.
Cons
When I got on site the position was nothing like it was advertised to me. All the time that I was at the position, it seemed like my predecessor was waiting in the shadows. Was not given any training or access to the necessary portals and departments that I needed. I wasn't paranoid either. Was reamed out by my Dean for asking for these necessary clearances. My predecessor deleted everything off the computer and took the USB drive with her, so I could not perform my position even if I wanted to. Noticed that my predecessor still had access to various functions to my position. Predecessor blocked me from my ability to interface with other institutions and departments here on campus! Was told by the Dean "I don't train people."

Work for Love of the Students not Money
May 5, 2021 - Professor in Lakewood, NJRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Collegial faculty, generally well meaning and hard working students, lovely campus

Pay isn't great. Leadership often seems to lack vision. Good behavior isn't really rewarded and bad behavior is rarely addressed / punished

Great Co-Workers, Terrible Pay
Apr 14, 2021 - Administration OfficerRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
It’s a small school so the departments are small and gives you a chance to really get to know your co-workers and form bonds. It also gives you a chance to know students as more than just a number and work directly with them. The insurance is decent.
Cons
The pay is below the average financial aid counselor and with the cost of living in New Jersey, it needs to be improved. The building my department is housed in is overcrowded and no real rules have been in place during the pandemic. We have lost benefits and incentives that we don’t think we will be getting back. Our department is treated as a catch all and we are often blamed for things we have no control over. I mentioned that the insurance is decent, but there are a lot of downsides to it that too.
