- this isn't really a HTW specific con, but overall science/third party funded research projects: my contract is limited to 2 years with 50%, so the overall salaray isn't great, honestly
- the department of culture and design tries, but fail to implement sustainability concepts in education at large
- during the job application process, my practical experience was not reflected in the salary category they assigned me into TVÖD, although the job posting specifically asked for a min. of 5 years practical experience
- I personally do not find the "Weiterbildungsangebot" to be too attractive
- offer less journal accesses and platforms than other universities
