This is not the worst place I ever worked, but it could be so much better. Good benefits courtesy of State of Texas. Old equipment, buildings, ideas of supervision. There is a lot of mistrust between workers and management. Management does not adequately communicate the vision, priorities, funding, etc. Employees cannot do a great job if no one tells them where to put there efforts. Beautiful campus, committed faculty. INconsistent messaging and no training for supervisors or managers. 0.0 0.0 3.0 4.0 2.0 3.0 2.0 3.0 Jan 23rd, 2021 07:53PM Mar 20th, 2021 01:03PM Lamar University Consumer Services General Retailers

There is systemic racism based upon the good ol’ boy system. If you aren’t white you won’t progress they find a reason to fire every minority that is hired. It pays the bills They stress you out to where it’s mainly hospital bills they pay 0.0 0.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 Jan 23rd, 2021 07:53PM Mar 19th, 2021 08:01PM Lamar University Consumer Services General Retailers

private:lamaruniversity https://www.indeed.com/cmp/lamar-university/reviews May 16th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open Open Lamar University Associate Buyer Beaumont, TX USA Difficult place to work I worked at Lamar University for 5 years doing several roles. They pay is very low and the treatment is very poor. Human Resources does not support the employees. I loved working there and helping students succeed. However, the way we were treated during the COVID-19 was disgusting. We were treated as if it was our fault and our health and safety was NEVER considered. I resigned. I would not recommend working here to anyone. The benefits are great, but it's not worth the way you are treated. 0.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 0.0 Jan 23rd, 2021 07:53PM Mar 20th, 2021 01:10PM Lamar University Consumer Services General Retailers

The insurance is paid, people are nice and facilities are great. Annual salaries are low. However, if you get in the "good graces" of the management staff, then there are opportunities to earn more money through adjudicating, being a learning community mentor, or even have 2 positions (instructor and program director). These opportunities are not advertised and are typically given to those that are in the know are some connected to the "right people." 0.0 0.0 5.0 5.0 3.0 5.0 5.0 5.0 Jan 23rd, 2021 07:53PM Mar 20th, 2021 05:48PM Lamar University Consumer Services General Retailers
