Demanding workplace, Great coworkers!
Program Specialist/ Curriculum Coordinator (Current Employee), Philadelphia, PA – May 1, 2013
Pros: benefits, employee development, great coworkers, company perks
Cons: long hours, demanding deadlines
Under limited supervision, a typical work day includes a variety of task from general administrative functions to website maintenance and classroom support.

We work mostly independently on projects however, some projects might require a team effort. My coworkers are great and have provided good constructive criticism at times as well as positive feedback – more... which has helped me to grow in my job.

The hardest part of the job is demanding deadlines which can require working additional hours from home to meet them and creates a difficult balance between my personal life and work. Although the job can be stressful at times, the benefits are great. – less

I think everybody at this school could care less about the private sector people. Totally useless University. Wouldn't recommend it to anybody.

Great team and work culture

Although it was a student position, I was valued as a member of the team. Our feedback counted as much as the staff and we were always well treated by our supervisors. I enjoyed the position and work environment as it promoted professionalism, hard work and allowed us to increase our knowledge base.

This is not an everyday job. We attend cases and listen to the evidence found and assess the situation of whether the student at fault is responsible or not responsible for their actions committed.
