Exceptional Community - Anonymous employee Denver Seminary Employee Review

Wonderful people, family-like environment. Great team.

I have not had any negative experiences

Denver Seminary is really about the people. By and large, the staff who were hired before 2025 are great - dedicated and passionate about what they do. The education is top notch - students are blessed by excellent faculty. The campus is beautiful as well. The care shown to and by those who engage with students is incredible and the library staff and ID teams are always putting students first.

With the presidential shift in 2025 following Mark Young's retirement, the seminary has lost its way. The new leaders who have come in do not have respect for the history of the school, and came in seeking innovation at all costs - even where it was unnecessary. Staff are leaving in droves because people are no longer cared for and community is no longer fostered. Communication from leadership has gone from bad to worse and there are multiple VP's who do not have their finger on the pulse of what the seminary is. It seems as if the president who came in had his agenda to push, without care or concern about what the school actually stands for or what they believed
