Underpaid for the work we do

Causal tutor (Former Employee) - Clayton - 1 July 2023

Underpaid and overworked. Other lecturer and tutors are not qualified. Poor management all around. Go to Unimelb or another university instead. Monash treats students like cash cows.

fun place

Assistant Educator (Former Employee) - Clayton VIC - 21 March 2023

This job is really fun, interactive, and inspiring. The work time is really long, and it can be really exhausting, but the pay is really good. The mental stress can be really high, and the human relationships can be really tough, but overall it's a great job.

Great place to work

Teaching Associate (Former Employee) - Clayton VIC - 8 December 2022

Good pay and working environment. People are helpful. Students are good. Have fun time teaching them. Pay for marking is quite low as you may have to spend more time than you need to finish.

highly performing university

Teaching Associate/Sessional Tutor (Current Employee) - Caulfield VIC - 3 October 2022

The staff whom I have met have mostly been very relational. However, having performed very well in Semester 1 in a part-time role, but as a sessional tutor, in Semester 2 there was a lack of communication leading to my being offered no tutorial. Perhaps there is some office politics?

Pros

Salary, 17% super & some staff members are relational, helpful and good at providing positive support and affirmation.

Cons

It was disappointing that my efforts in Semester 1 were not rewarded in Second 2, Perhaps because of office politics?tics?

Worked to the bone for so little

Teaching (Former Employee) - Clayton VIC - 25 January 2022

Tutors, run away. The amount of work you put in to care for students doesn't get remunerated as the hours system makes it impossible for you to do your job.

Pros

Diversity of activities, fun challenges

Cons

Long hours unpaid

An excellent workplace

Business Analyst/System Administrator (Former Employee) - Clayton VIC - 1 November 2020

I did an IT contract for Monash during 2019. The staff were wonderful, the atmosphere being collaborative and highly team oriented. The management were supportive and just let me get on with what I know without interfering. Overall I'd go back there anytime they have an opening for my skillset. A great place to work.

Don't do it to yourself

Animal Technician (Former Employee) - Clayton VIC - 24 October 2020

Staff are over worked, skills under utilised unless of course management can manipulate you. Don't care about workplace injuries, wellbeing or any flexibility. They want robots not staff with ideas or initiative.

Pros

Non

Cons

Too many to list

Nice work place

Teaching Associate (Current Employee) - Melbourne VIC - 23 August 2020

If you are looking for a relaxing work place with nice places for you to eat lunch and a library for you to go and find your favourite books and magazines, Monash University would be a great place for you to work while trying to explore the campus and learn a little bit more about yourself and the next generation.

Pros

Friendly work mates, nice work place on campus & nice places to have lunch.

Cons

Marking can be tedious & there's no pay for casual staff during the break.

Cons

Monotonous and very hi

Fun place, enjoyable, good people

Monash Connect Officer, Monash University (Former Employee) - Monash University VIC - 16 May 2020

Easy going yet still busy with things to do. Multi-tasking - Emails, Inbound phone calls, front counter service, printing of documents and cards, liaising and building relationships with faculties and other departments, sometimes making outbound calls. Never dull; always something to do or learn, with a great team of people to do it with!
