Northern Kentucky University Employee

"I was doing a research program at Northern Kentucky University and it was an amazing opportunity. Working in the lab space outside of class was different because I had more control over my work. I could get advise from my supervisor often but also input more of myself into the project which made me love it more. The work space was friendly yet educational and respectful. It was suitable to get the job done and for me to improve as a chemist."

What don't you like about working at Northern Kentucky University?

"The people who make the university run have a hard time swallowing not getting a raise for years when the university is spending millions of dollars on going D1 and can't spend money on their employees or infrastructure. It gives the message that money, sports and title are important when you neglect the education side and employees for these things. Your employees are vastly underpaid according to regional salary estimates and comps with an ever increasing workload."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Put the focus on making your employees feel like a person with a name and not a black and white number on a spreadsheet. Establish and focus professional development and incentives."
