Mixed feelings
Admissions Records Supervisor (Former Employee), North Miami, FL – March 27, 2013
Pros: pleasant workplace environment, stable work
Cons: head office in rhode island had issues with black employees
I loved this job but was not really given a chance.
I feel I was pushed out of this job solely because the new director who was sent down to Florida campus had an issue with my race. I spoke to other employees in a few departments who had also moved down from Rhode Island and knew the new director and was told by various persons she had a pattern of – more... negative behavior towards young men who were minorities. – less
