Advice to Management

Nothing

Pros

Great Community, good benefits, nice place

Cons

little room to move up

Pros

Flexible hours, team focused work environment

Cons

Scheduling system , filing system outdated

Pros

Good community. Good benefits. Good people in the trenches. Used to be a special place to be.

Cons

Old leadership has been chased out and culture changing for the worst. Mid-level management completely clueless and concerned only with self-preservation. Politics are sickening. I had 5 bosses in the last 5 years. Ultimately, I was fired without severance weeks before having a new baby and over the phone after 10+ years of service. What does that tell you about their leadership??

Advice to Management

Loyola is going downhill. Fast. Look at the numbers (like the tuition discount rate and alumni giving). Return to traditional values and stop trying to be like everyone else. Use job as a stepping stone to (jhu) get out before it gets worse. Hold leaders accountable for failures of their subordinates and don’t espouse scapegoating.

Pros

Days off around the holidays

Cons

Really intense work environment. Extremely low pay. Terrible benefits. Poor 401k plan. Employees pay to park.

Advice to Management

Pay your employees better. We make very little and making us pay for parking only adds insult to injury.

Pros

I worked in the admissions office and it was a really inviting place to work

Cons

Office space was small and cramped, though I was only an intern so I wasn't complaining

Pros

Location is good and close to lots of things

Cons

pay is very low. very cut throat for a Jesuit university. High stress and low pay.

Pros

Loved the staff across campus, great co-workers all committed to helping students, great benefits if you were planning on being there for the long haul.

Cons

The pay didn't reflect the cost of living. As i was leaving, there were starting lay people off. I thought the leadership became out of touch...especially at the executive level. HR is probably the worst out of the universities i have worked at. The diversity piece was a huge red flag. I know this was a predominately white school but I think there is a great opportunity to connect a little more with the community.

Advice to Management

I know there were some advisory teams on campus but there could be a big need for specifically a Staff Advisory Committee so they can have a voice that can get to the higher ups.
