Avantages

Work with great people. Retirement plan match is excellent 8% on 1% contribution. Medical is affordable.

Inconvénients

Raises are pretty much non-existent. 1% on average. 2% is considered a great year. Heard that this year will be 0.3%. Paid time off (PTO) is pathetic when you are new. First year you get 18 days, however the institute is closed the week of Christmas and they make you use your PTO days during that time which is 4-5 days. That leaves you with potentially 13 days for the year. This is all inclusive of vacation, sick and personal time. It's not nearly enough for anyone with a family. Human Resources is a joke. They are not responsive to the employees needs/suggestions. They take forever to post a job when someone leaves. They seem to be a pawn for the president.

Avantages

The medical insurance was great. It was a custom plan with low co-pays and no deductible. I worked with some amazing people and learned a lot about my field. This position allowed me to travel all over the country and internationally. We were given the week between Christmas and New Year's off. The best part of the job was interacting with students, meeting them and helping them. We had a pretty lenient work from home policy too.

Inconvénients

HR does not actually care about the employees. My boss set me up for failure. The school still thinks it is a top 25 university. They are not looking to the future and are stuck. Even with the the new president of the university is backward thinking and rarely talks to employees.
