Pros

The people who work at Samford are some of the nicest and genuine people I’ve ever met. There is a real sense of community. I felt work life balance was appreciated (by some) albeit with push back from the administration.

Cons

Very conservative culture, as to be expected. I felt very uncomfortable with some of the values held and displayed. Very top down, hierarchical leadership with little communication which is frustrating. If you require a culture of agility to perform well at your job you will not do well here.

Didn’t really have any issues. The salary was low first year, and it got better.

Pros

- Love the people I work with - Flexible with time off

Cons

- Incredibly low pay. - Minimal increase in pay even if you get promoted. - Work-from-home isn't really a thing......until there is a bad weather day. Then everyone is told to work from home.
