Initially happy but looking to leave!
POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCHER (Current Employee), Piscataway, NJ – April 7, 2013
Pros: good people to work with, good health insurance
Cons: bad managment. no raises. university does not care about employees.
There are some good people to work with here, and initially had pretty good experience and initially good compensation for the position. However, very poor management from top to bottom. Hard working employees are not appreciated and will not be rewarded. University unwilling to give reasonable cost of living raises (instead spends it on the football – more... stadium) and after a few years the initial good benefits are outpaced by inflation and increased taxes. – less

Campus Tour Guide
Douglass Residential College Red Pine Ambassador (Former Employee), New Brunswick, NJ – March 26, 2013
Pros: interacting with future students
Cons: the politics of the organization
At least once a month, I conducted tours for perspective female students that were interested in Rutgers University and Douglass Residential College. I demonstrated the benefits of living in all female community, as well as the many opportunities that Rutgers had to offer. It was most enjoyable to see young women excited for college.

Productive and Exciting
Senior Design Project (Former Employee), Piscataway, NJ – February 15, 2013
The senior design project taught me much about component selection, budgeting, working with a team, conceptual and component design, programming, and fabrication. The first semester was spent doing research and component selection. The second semester involved the actual fabrication and testing. I had very little issue with my team members and we received – more... an award for second best design from the Rutgers School of Engineering. – less

Senior Design Project (Former Employee), Piscataway, NJ – February 15, 2013
Under my Professor, I researched a topic that I had great interest and presented a paper at the end of the year. I spent much time researching the issue and doing calculations to derive the necessary equations. My adviser was insightful and gave me ample time to complete my work.

Administrative Assistant, Business Office (Current Employee), Newark, NJ – February 1, 2013
Working at Rugters is a great expierence.One learns new thing everyday. Being a administrative assistant everyday is a challenge to handle three different tasks at the same time. One can get through any challenge by not handling it as a challenge,rather handle it as learning experience.

Field Work
Head Interviewer (Former Employee), New Brunswick, NJ – January 22, 2013
Pros: free metro
Cons: working outside in the cold
i would go out into the field of selected participates then inform them of the benfits and purpose of the study and conduct the online survey. After I collected all the data I would then transfer all paper work for the day to my supervisor. The hardest part of the job was getting people to participate, even though I explain the purpose in simple and – more... clear detail, participates would still be a little apprehensive about answering questions. I learn how to create relationship with new people and found new ways of "reading" people to school what they can identify with the study inorder to get them to participate. The best part of my job, was working with my co-workers, we inspired each other to do better and encouraged each other, when all we heard in the day was people saying "no!". – less

Great place to work
Administrative Support (Current Employee), Newark, NJ – January 8, 2013
Pros: flexibility between working and classes, lunch hours are flexible
Cons: nothing much to do many times, but when work is given there is a time constraint
In this job students are able to earn money and study at the same time. It's flexible hours are great for students, who have to balance a family and school at the same time to earn a degree. It's surrounding is full of people, who love what they do and care about their job and positions.
