Lies, Mistreatment, Discrimination, Lack of Integrity, and a Culture of Micromanagement - Anonymous employee Trinity Washington University Employee Review

Working at Trinity Washington University was one of the most disappointing professional experiences of my career. The environment is extremely micromanaged, leaving little room for creativity, autonomy, or professional growth. Leadership often makes promises that are not honored, which creates a sense of distrust and instability among staff. There is a clear lack of integrity and transparency in how decisions are made. Favoritism and internal politics seem to matter more than hard work or dedication. In some departments, employees are treated unfairly or spoken to in ways that border on bullying. Constructive feedback is rarely welcomed, and genuine efforts to improve are often dismissed. Diversity and inclusion are used as talking points, but in practice, discrimination and unequal treatment still persist. The overall culture feels toxic and unsupportive, especially for those who want to grow or contribute new ideas. If you value honesty, respect, and opportunities for advancement, this is not the right place to thrive.
