Great benefits, not so great administration - Senior Administrative Assistant Yale University Employee Review

Pros

The benefits can't be beat. The health insurance, paid time off, sons and daughters scholarship program, homebuyers assistance program...all stellar

Cons

The university leadership is trying to corporatize a research university. While on some level this is necessary, on a human scale it is horrible in its implementation and rationality. Bad leaders beget bad leaders... Metrics are now universally and most incorrectly used across the university for staffing decisions, facilities decisions, and lots more, leading to department and university leaders thinking they're certified statisticians. It's a horrible, toxic environment
