Micromanagement - Coordinator Columbia University Employee Review

Pros

Good pay and great medical benefits

Cons

My manager was so micromanaging and psychologically toxic/borderline abusive. And the rest of my team just accepted this behavior willingly and some even emulated the behaviors. I resisted normalizing this as I’ve had previous jobs that actually respected me, but seeing the rest of the team felt like a bit like syndrome. This school can be very productivity driven & not so focused on the actual mental wellbeing of staff. You have to just decide what your priorities are and whether the prestige & income is worth the likely long-term burnout.

Pros

The work when I had it was amazing, I really appreciated it for what it gave me.

Cons

Unfortunately, with the change in management came zero transparency and rules for thee, not for me. It's led to really weird decisions.
