Research Specialist at EMORY
Research Specialist, Lead (Former Employee), Atlanta, GA –
I think the main problem with working at EMORY that you always will be treated as second class citizen unless you have PhD.
It does not matter that you have bunch of publications, that you supervise laboratory for many years, you still going to be treated by administration as low grade technician. Benefits used to be good now every year they cut something. – more...  If you get lucky and join lab that have money you will be little bit better of. Did I mention paid parking?
While it is a good school I don't think it is the best place for career growth. – less

Exhausted – May 5, 2012

I also work for Emory (in a different area) and agree that the growth potential sucks. Tons of lateral moves but you aren't moving up. There's definitely an aire of 'we're better than you' from upper management.

The work was interesting but hazardous.
RESEARCH ASSISTANT (Former Employee), Atlanta, GA –
Pros: i was trained well.
Cons: the work was sometimes dangerous.
I collected behavioral data on two species of non-human primates, collected blood samples, assisted in surgery and cleaned animal housing areas.

I learned clinical skills and how to collect behavioral data on non-human primates.

Management set high standards for performance.

My coworkers were fun-loving, yet skilled and professional.

The hardest – more...  part of the job was working with dangerous animals.

The most enjoyable part of the job was collecting behavioral data. – less

A very corporate environment in research that did not allow much nurse patient interaction
research nurse (Former Employee), Atlanta, Georgia –
Pros: great benefits, lots of opportunities for learning, beautiful surroundings
Cons: not conducive for staff building, very demanding, poor communication betwwen management.
As a research nurse I learned more than I ever have about the computer and use of various software. I had a lot of autonomy but very few mentors. The world was very interesting and needed but also very demanding.Work load did not allow completion of any one project.
