According to their own HR training, it is an hostile work environment
Pros
The students themselves are the brightest part of the experience. The natural setting is beautiful and inspiring. Some departments are filled with passionate and capable educators doing their best under difficult conditions.
Cons
Since it is not a good place to work, people quit all the time and that high staff turnover is met not with replacement, but with redistribution of duties to remaining staff, often without training or added compensation. Housing is "sold" as a benefit to the teachers, however it comes with a whole another job called Dorm Parenting. You are not paid for the time you dorm parent; since it is a demanding job, there are no consistent days off, and personal time is regularly interrupted by additional duties. Leadership is disengaged and largely remote, with little understanding of or any concern for the day-to-day realities of staff and faculty working on campus. Poor infrastructure maintenance, including persistent rodent and insect infestations, especially in student dorms. Small mountain town, no HR, no oversight of any school operational integrity. Quite sad. The organization suffers from nepotism and systemic disorganization, leading to inconsistent experiences across departments and frequent burnout. My direct supervisor lacked basic managerial competence, which resulted in miscommunication, frequent blame-shifting, and unsafe conditions for students.
