Work culture and team are great, but have to fix a lot problems I have no control over

Commercialization Manager (Current Employee) - Dallas, TX - August 31, 2023

Team is great and culturally very welcoming and motivating. You complete your own work and do not have to depend on someone else. But often you are blamed for things outside your control or that predate your involvement.

Micro manager

Clinical Data Coordinator (Former Employee) - Dallas, TX - August 29, 2023

UT is a wonderful place but depending on the team your on within the department is the determining factor on how you will love it. I worked in the oncology research department at the satellite site housed at parkland and the management was such a micro manager that the employees would never stay long. They were always stressed out and you have to constantly keep email source documentation for your protection.
