My time at NCSU had been fruitful and enjoyable. Most faculty have a true open door policy. I was given numerous opportunities to learn and grow as a scientist.

The institution has incredible potential that cannot be met. Most of the management is inexperienced and inbred. The most detrimental management problem is that commitments are made without resources to complete the work or ability of managment to move projects forward.
In general employees are not supported and so an "everyone for themselves" atmosphere – more... has been cultivated. – less
