Pros
Truly mission-minded and conservative. Beautiful campus. All indoors.
Cons
Seems male-dominated and rigid in their beliefs. Rarely see women or people of color at the top.

Pros
Good environment to work with nice people. Beautiful location right on Lake Michigan. Wonderful students all very friendly.
Cons
Very low pay with someone with a college degree. Pay raises are ridiculous. If you're looking for a high paying career this is not the place.

Pros
Most of the people are very kind. Everyone seems to work hard. Tuition reimbursement for family
Cons
The pay is very low. I hold a master's degree, was offered paltry salary. Little appreciation for achievement or innovative thinking. Potential discriminatory hiring practices. If you are not a Lutheran male, and go to the proper church, kiss your advancement opportunities good bye.

Pros
Concordia is a special place. People care here. Of course we care about the students, but coworkers also care for each other and the school community. It is a wonderful place to work.
Cons
Pay is below normal but benefits are way above standard so it equals out.

Pros
The company hosts chapel every morning for staff, faculty and students. Very faith based. They also have bible study weekly with a free lunch. Exercise programs and many opportunities to volunteer in the community. The quality of the people is great. Flat organizational structure so it is easy to send ideas up the ladder for guidance.
Cons
Everyone has three jobs so plan to work hard.

Pros
I met some of the sweetest people while working for Concordia, and, many of them became great friends that I continued my friendships with after I left the university. You won't find that many nice people in the same workplace anywhere else.
Cons
If you're not a VP or Senior VP...good luck. Many members in upper level management are making six figures while those that are doing the grit and grime of the day-to-day are struggling financially. But, don't ask for more money when you're first hired, or even down the line if you're not upper level management, because HR will tell you there isn't any room to move you up the pay scale. I also agree with others when they say upper management is a boy's club. There is a strong lack of females and people of color and other ethnic backgrounds making larger decisions. The men at the top seem to be very well protected and compensated...even if they aren't doing the work to deserve the salaries they have. Favoritism is strong. Get on your bosses good side and stay there. Keep your head down, and you'll do just fine.
