Administrative Assistant - Assistant Administrator Delta State University Employee Review

Engaging, Connecting, Learning, Vibrant, Great

Not too many cons. Low Pay but is an internship

Great leave time, benefits, vacation accrual is great

Difficult to use vacation and personal time. Management sets confusing standards and rules, often contradicting itself. Upper administration is either missing or woefully unqualified for their positions. There is currently a very negative work culture where you are encouraged to do MUCH more than is contractually required, and if you only do your assigned duties, that’s not enough. If you question that, you aren’t a team player. If you take your leave, “you’re never there.” Boot licking is appreciated and rewarded here. There are no raises and if you ask for one, even if you can show the salary is low compared to industry standards, they will laugh and will gaslight you and say, “you don’t come to DSU to make money, that’s not why we are here.” It’s just an all-around toxic place right now.
