Fiscal challenges do not apply to Administration - Director Boston University Employee Review

Pros

Flexible schedule, generous paid time off and other benefits, colleagues are kind

Cons

Budget cuts and layoffs only apply to lower paid staff, meanwhile Provosts and other administrators continue to have bloat. In my department several low paying positions have been eliminated or not replaced, meanwhile the Provost has an Executive Director, Administrative Assistant and Chief of Staff. None of these roles contribute to education delivery. Chief of Staff? BU is not the White House.
