More pay cuts and redundancies

University for the creative arts with campuses at Farnham, Epsom and Canterbury have decided to save money this time by enforcing a 1% pay cut and 5 days mandatory unpaid leave so effectively another 2% cut. Plus lots of other cuts and voluntary redundancies again. This is on top of two massive restructures that have halved professional services, and various vice chancellors leaving under NDAs with golden handshakes.
im in PS and only on around 30k full time, it works out at £700 loss for me. I’m already exhausted. Time to leave and reclaim some of my life I think.
