The Pingry School

A typical work day includes donor research, emails/calls, prospect meetings, staff meetings, and reporting. 

I learned a great deal about research and donor cultivation/solicitation/stewardship.  

The management was difficult.  Any mistakes or unintentional breach in protocol was not mentioned until quarterly review, which allowed you to make a mistake several times without knowing it until weeks (sometimes months afterward).  

Workplace culture was current but seemed to have a double standard.  The hardest part of the job was obtaining meetings and major gifts after a very successful capital campaign.

The most enjoyable part of the job was the opportunity to interact with the students.

A day at work would start with restocking and organizing and following instructions of what needed to be done that day.  I would be in charge of vending machines and help with food order. Everyday was pretty much the same. Seemed to be a political place to work at. l would hear people talk about one and another behind their backs. It took me a good yr to feel comfortable to be at the job. Almost afraid of getting to work and being told I did something wrong.  The most enjoyable part of the job was getting to know the students.

I only coached at Pingry but really loved the environment. There were some Saturdays I wish I didn't have to spend my whole day traveling, but it's part of the gig.

Loved the kids, the other people working were great. Only downside is that being part time it is hard to deal with potential HR issues if they come up.

I worked there for a few years and felt like they paid me more than enough considering how much I was working.

granted I was a camp counselor working over the summer.
Most enjoyable part of the job was working with children, since they are a joy to be around.
I can't really give much insight into management, because it was a summer job that I attained so that I could get spending money during my high school years.

Work environment is bad because of the bosses horrible people. Who doesn’t care about the employees. moral is so bad. Pay sucks raises are next to nothing. And they talk about spending millions and millions but can’t pay decent to the workers.

My years at Pingry were during the leadership of a school head who was incredibly supportive of teachers, even when they made mistakes. Teachers and administrators felt supported, and if you had ideas, they were seriously considered.

Depending on if you're faculty or staff Pingry can be great.  Even within those guidelines it depends on your actual department as each area is kind of it's own fiefdom.  There's a one person HR department so there's not a lot of overall guidance or oversight.

If I were younger I would never stay at a place like this. The management here is horrific .They don't have a good or kind word to say about anyone.
It is sad at $50 k a year to attend  you would think they would care about more than just the bottom line

Its a great place to work! Its hard work plus going on sport trip!
The Teachers are great to talk to!
You could learn a lot from these teachers!
The Hardest is getting up early! Getting home late!
The students plays and sports trip!
Getting free lunch at the basic!

Working at this school gave me anxiety every day. I have never met a more incompetent group of people in HR and management. There is not anyone who will advocate for the employee.
