The college has some talent from prior years. The changes lack transparency, less money and more students in classes. The financial focus has been reckless - spending on international travel and positions not needed (Teaching Excellence Center/DEI) while less instructor experience and pay cuts.
What did you like most about the interview process?
It was comprehensive and student focused.
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
There needs to be changes in leadership at all levels from President to VPs. Some of the deans only care about enrollment numbers no matter what the students do. Students are not getting employment much from this school due to poor performance.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
They need to be present and deal with the issues. The results of identifying improvement turns into reports that are not shared to protect their positions. Many excellent employees have left over the immoral practice. They need to improve the culture rather than their 2 slide presentations.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
The college has pinched instructor pay. One year there is inflation adjustments, then they back door layoff more experienced instructors to hire less expensive instructors. The class sizes can grow infinitely now. The best instructors are not kept. They build fake committees that rids best staff
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
There needs to be less undercutting among leads with their adjuncts and with the adjuncts for positions. They state they respect quality and seniority, then complain about money. The students lose. Ultimately the college loses as their enrollment has dropped. They blame problems on CCCS sadly.
