Tufts University Employee

"Upon joining the university, the culture, work and management were good in the Finance department. The morale was high and there were good plans to change how budget and financial planning was managed in higher-ed. After a couple of years there was a change in management and with the new management came a change from a collegial environment to caustic, dictatorial, and command-and-control. The department experienced significant attrition and continued to for the past two years. People were forced out, probably against HR and employment policy, but bullying was the MO of this so-called leader. Meanwhile the demands on the staff continue to increase and grow without recognition or compensation. I do not recommend."

"I have been working at Tufts University since 2013. Tufts is private university with three different campuses located in Boston, Medford/Somerville and Grafton, Mass, and one in Talloires, France.

"I've worked at the Cummings School for over 10 years. It's one of the busiest veterinary hospitals in the country. It is a good environment for work with an academic environment. However, there is an anti-technology mindset which can be tough for IT morale. Not a lot of room for growth either, as the company has moved to external vendors for their systems."
