Management ground down the people and talent in pursuit of the almighty dollar - Anonymous employee SAE Institute Employee Review

Communication between management and employees is woeful. Us vs them mentality in most areas but mostly between management and everyone else. Pay is right on minimum wage and they use creative accounting to squeeze more hours out of everyone. Vague confusing contracts that are very difficult to decipher without someone who is experienced. I received two pay increases over 10 years while management took biyearly management retreats that bought zero benefits to the campus. In one instance a staff teamwork award was never paid out to the staff and was kept by management. Executive team is mostly white men. Creative industries are close to 50/50 parity resulting in some weird discrepancies in leadership and decision making methods. No connection to key industries and no support to build those connections to support current staff and current and alumni students. Becoming woefully behind the industry
