- Rude managers who call academic staff over by wiggling their index fingers at them
- One manager saw me queue in front of the registry office when I wanted to collect exam papers. She wiggled her index finger at me to get my attention and told me to get out of the queue till all the students have been served
- Senior positions in the academic team and operational team are nepotistically awarded to a director's underqualified children. As an employee, you will need to act as the subservient servants of these 'children' if you want to keep your job
- Lastly but very important, they hire academics in their busy semester when they deliberately run a lot of modules which the academic is qualified to teach. Once the semester is over, they make the academic redundant. After skipping a semester, they readvertise your job and repeat this process. They will cause you to leave secure jobs and schedule academic teaching in a way that you are overexploited, make you redundant and readvertise your post. In my case, my manager asked me to complete the marking, which I was given four days to complete, quickly by the end of the afternoon. He kept revisiting me to ask my progress and said it was urgent I sped up. As soon as I finished marking in a rush, he told me I was being made redundant. He deliberately acted unethically to avoid paying me for an extra four days. A lot of my colleagues were made redundant, and the jobs were readvertised after one semester.
To all job hunters, please don't join this organisation unless you are completely unemployed. Not only will you lose a secure job, but their managers will also sneer at you at the sham redundancy consultation, again by wigging index fingers and pulling smug smiles. They have no respect for staff, no basic manners to conduct themselves and have zero ethics.
