Florida State University Employer Reviews

I love being employed at FSU because there is a sense of community and pride. However, some of the administration make the university a hard place to be employed

Florida State is a wonderful place for work and school. It is extremely efficient and runs like a well oiled machine.

All the professors were very kind and understanding, breaks were regular and comfortable.

I have been working at FSU. I like it.
Environment for research and development is not enough but the system to help students is well organized.

Technical production which is a program int he FSU school of Theater is a great program for student wishing to pursue graduate studies in Technical Theaters. I had great learning experiences and fantastic campus to boot.

Working here has been an opportunity and always a pleasure. A typical day here is always interesting.

I started working at FSU since 2011. As a student employee, FSU offer me an opportunity to communicate with students in various major by teaching and leading team activities. During the whole teaching period I am constantly supported by my students. They always express their passion in learning useful tips to understand the idea of statistics, and it – more... is the passion in their eyes that encouraged me to work harder and harder as a good teacher. – less

I've done an intensive research on developing new composite polymeric blends. The addition of composites would alter the properties of the blends; for instance, When I impregnated the non-magnetic polymeric blend with magnetic nano particles, it acquired magnetic properties. I used several techniques for characterizing the blends properties such as – more... NMR, SQUID, Tensile machine, TGA, DSC, & DMA. – less

Working for FSU has been a privilege, but I am disheartened by the lack of money I am paid for my hard work. The environment is fun, co-workers are great and meeting with students is good, but can be taxing. I am expected to meet with a huge roster of students, participate in initiatives and get paid little money. If they paid more, I would gladly meet – more... the demands of the jobs. I am definitely looking somewhere else for more income to support my financial obligations. With the demands of the job, trying to have a part-time job is out of the question because you are so tired when you leave. Good place to work, just don't expect a lot of money. Last I checked, FSU was one of the lowest paying higher education institutions. – less

Other than the increase in Hours working conditons were adequate.

Florida State University works hard to comply with policies and procedures.
My position has quite a diverse scope of duties. The job demands continual education/training in order to keep abreast of new requirements and policies.

Normal Grad school
Great working experience & school experience

Graduate Assistants at FSU are paid so little that we qualify for food stamps. On top of this we are pay fees and health insurance amounting to nearly $2,000/semester. This exploitation at its finest.
