Don't plan on a career with Ivy Tech - Full-time Faculty Member Ivy Tech Community College Employee Review

Pros

Strong benefit program (watch out for delayed retirement plan access). They are really good at spending money on new buildings and remodeling (why did they need Italian marble for the entry way of the NMC building?)

Cons

Low pay, living in Indianapolis, incompetence and nepotism are the rule for department chairs and up. Management has lost sight of education, they are focused on administration and justifying more positions and pay for useless administrators. The faculty full-time to adjunct ratio is 30-70 and among the lowest in the country. Management bloviates about student completion ratios but seem to be clueless about the importance of faculty vs. administration. Promotions seem to be dictated by who is playing golf with Tom, or what family you were born into.

Pros

Flexible scheduling. Good coworkers. Meaningful work. Above average campus support.

Cons

Low pay, with no possibilities of raises for the last couple of years and probably for the next could have years as well. Ever increasing responsibilities as statewide leadership changes and state funding cuts occur. Disconnect between statewide leadership and local campus needs.
