I've always received any and all support that I needed from the director, admins, and other faculty members. I have never experienced any friction within the department and the communication is always on point. This is an excellent place to work if you are competent in your field of expertise and wish to share that knowledge with students who aspire to work in the same industry. They hire industry professionals with actual work experience, making the course content relatable to the instructor and in turn, to the students. Because the school is open enrollment, there will always be variations in the level of student engagement and preparedness for each course section. Those working at AAU always need to take this into consideration, as it affects the class dynamic. Management takes care of its instructors, healthcare benefits Contract work means employment for subsequent semesters in not a guarantee 0.0 0.0 5.0 5.0 5.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 Jan 16th, 2021 07:02AM Mar 19th, 2021 08:04PM Academy of Art University Consumer Services General Retailers

The pitch is to potential students to attend Academy of Art University and make it as a star. The odds of making it in entertainment are slim so buyer beware.

private:academyofart https://www.indeed.com/cmp/academy-of-art-university/reviews Mar 31st, 2020 12:00AM Open Open Open Academy of Art University Admissions Advisor San Francisco, CA USA The pay is good. That's about it. They pay well and the benefits are decent. Just don't expect any loyalty or support. Management will throw anyone under the bus while being mystified as to why morale is consistently so low. This is a place where people disappear regularly, either being fired without warning or leaving without bothering to give notice. The focus is solely on short-term metrics, leading to a robbing-Peter-to-pay-Paul situation; they want to pump up admissions so encourage a lot of people to apply that shouldn't, then bemoan a low retention rate as students flunk out. 0.0 0.0 2.0 4.0 1.0 1.0 4.0 1.0 Jan 16th, 2021 07:02AM Mar 19th, 2021 08:12PM Academy of Art University Consumer Services General Retailers
private:academyofart https://www.indeed.com/cmp/academy-of-art-university/reviews Mar 13th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open Open Academy of Art University Publications San Francisco, CA USA No work/life balance It was always so stressful working in a box like space without any air conditioning or a heater. Furthermore, there was no flexibility of working remotely under any circumstances. My manager was so biased and had her mood swings almost every single day. She casually walked in late almost EVERY other day, and never showed up on Mondays but expected all the other team mates to be present on time and at their desk everyday of the week. What was also shocking was the way in which she communicated with her manager, and talked about him behind his back. Overall, the company did not provide a good atmosphere to work and be productive, the manager does not have fixed guidelines on producing quality work and changed her stand as per her likes or dislikes for a team mate. 0.0 0.0 2.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 2.0 1.0 Jan 16th, 2021 07:02AM Mar 19th, 2021 08:15PM Academy of Art University Consumer Services General Retailers

No room for growth and no desire to grow with the company. The building was depressing and everything was geared around tricking students into attending the Academy. its all recruiting tbh.
