"Authoritarian, low pay, high work load, just not a nice place!"
What do you like about working at Case Western Reserve University?
"Not a lot really. It is a well recognized institution, and outsiders probably think it has a good reputation; and even I agree that it does, just not as an employer. In the end, their reputation will not do me much good, I didn't stay for long."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Don't. I won't even advise you to scrutinize them because they lied to me in the interview about some very specific questions I asked them. I did not get what I was sold on. There are so many better organizations out there!"
What don't you like about working at Case Western Reserve University?
"Management is authoritarian, micro-manages, and is pretentious. The work-load is out of balance with the pay - too much work! They keep some horribly ill-mannered people around for years. A good portion of people from my department have left already and many are looking."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Retire! You are beyond help. If you must stick around, try not to think you are better than other people, it all begins with mutual respect - it's not that hard!"
"Avoid!!! Authoritarian management style and the parking is a joke!"
What do you like about working at Case Western Reserve University?
"Short commute from home to parking lot. There were some very nice people there - just not the ones that mattered."
Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?
"Ask lots of questions and really scrutinize their response, I was blatantly lied to - so that I would take the job, then to find out later it was a disaster. I wish I had paid even more attention to subtle use of language, pauses, and asked even more precise questions."
What don't you like about working at Case Western Reserve University?
"The authoritarian culture, the high cost of parking, the location of the parking lot is usually very far from your office. It takes less time for me to drive to work than to walk from my car to my office."
What suggestions do you have for management?
"Be less authoritarian, I know of one position where they're on their 4th person in the space of 12 months. Maybe it's you not them. Don't tell me what to do, ask me, I will do it anyway. They genuinely believe that you as a subordinate are a pawn to be ordered around - work with your employees as equals not as over-lords."
