Wonderful Working Environment
Research Assistant (Former Employee), St. Louis, MO –
I found Washington University to be a wonderful working environment. Where everyone was helpful, nice, and training was required.I also found the management to be helpful and continue making the work environment a wonderful one. I learned how to produce radio-isotopes and how clinical trials for pharmacological companies are run. The hardest part of – more...  my job was completing the clinical trials in the GMP lab . The most enjoyable part of my job was working with my great coworkers. – less

Pros: free lunches/breakfast during meetings.
Cons: downtime between appoints, downtime when doctors are out of town
Doctors were friendly and helpful. The job provided the opportunity to see just what goes on behind the front desk in the doctor's office. Enjoyed the opportunity to expand my knowledge base on all subjects..medical &research.

I enjoyed working with the staff.

Good Benefits/Tuition Assistance. Low Compensation. No Opportunities for Advancement.
Research Tech II (Current Employee), School of Medicine –
Pros: good benefits, tuition assistance
Cons: low compensation compared to market rates, no opportunities for advancement, difficult to transition to a different type of job, not given that opportunity
Good Benefits/Tuition Assistance.

Low Compensation.

No Opportunities for Advancement.

Not much opportunities to learn new skills - 1 year top needed to get proficient at what you do and then you just do the same.

Definitely no opportunities/very unlikely to get good promotions or raises. Once you start at a low salary, you basically will barely – more...  make any better. Example: Within a 3-yr period my hourly rate went up with $0.80. Unfortunately, as an employee in a research lab, not valued much. – less

Do they hire minorities

Susan2012 – March 25, 2012

I guess they do. You don't want to work there. They think nothing of demeaning you on a daily basis. Will send you to the restroom in tears.
