Working at Valencia College in Orlando, FL: 7 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Orlando, FL Area

"This is a review for the Valencia East campus security department. I had to deal with a toxic coworker for several years and the senior management didn't do a thing. Worse, the last time I reported the coworker, director "L" transferred me to another campus and cut my hours. He then strung me along for months leading me to believe that he was going to transfer me back and resolve the situation when he had no intention of doing so. I've also seen another coworker openly insult a supervisor several times. Everyone in the office knew about it, the supervisor knew about it, but again senior management did nothing. They allow bad behavior. Reporting it is pointless. Unless you do something illegal you won't get written up or fired. Save yourself the trouble and don't work here, find somewhere else."

"Awesome place to work. Worked there for five years. Only left to continue the career as aerospace engineer."

"I worked there for only one semester as an Adjunct Professor. I found the students to be eager to create and learn and explore. I enjoyed preparing and delivering presentations and walking the students through tutorials. It was great experience."

"Valencia College has been part of my life since 2011 when I decide to got back to school and improve myself. I am found a lot of support for my professors and my career adviser. I had an internship at Valencia that turned into June a job at the Computer Lab. I have been working there since October. It is a great environment, but my supervisor could only give me 20 hours. The hours are definitely an issue. I would like a full time job that I can grow and earn a better salary."
