UTHealth Houston Employee Reviews

I have to say the benefits are really good here...but management 🤦🏾‍♀️, you are incurred to ask questions BUT that doesn't mean you will get an answer for you supervisor or manager...you can let them know of a trend that's going on ,and they tell you "oh no that's not true, you need to call them" okay but I just told you I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH 2 DIFFERENT PEOPLE....it's the blind and out of touch leading...

Pros

A PAID week of for CHRISTMAS

Cons

The pay sucks and you get VERY small raises

decent company

Programmer (Former Employee) - Houston, TX - November 6, 2023

It is a good company to work for, with great benefits and exciting work, which can challenge and make you grow exponentially. But the salary is too low.

Great Benefits Horrible Management

Medical Assistant (Former Employee) - Katy, TX - November 6, 2023

I worked at UT Health for a few months. My stay would've been longer if it wasn't for management. My leadership made me feel like I didn't know what I was doing and I was incompetent. The workload wasn't too hard but it was tedious and we often double worked ourselves. The providers were horrible to the nurses and spoke to us as if we were beneath them. Upper management was no help and neither was HR.

Team was like family

Resear (Former Employee) - Houston, TX - November 3, 2023

Every team is different, but mine was like a family. The only issue I had was that we often had to volunteer our time for overtime and weekends. Wonderful to build experience.

Work life balance was great and flexible when I needed it. Retirement program is great if you're going to stay there your entire career. Management listens to employees.

Great mission, great doctors

Marketing Manager (Former Employee) - Houston, TX - November 1, 2023

Great culture with very bright physicians who were outstanding to work with. A lot of bureaucracy to deal with but motivation was provided by the mission and getting to work with stellar performers.

Lack of mentorship

Postdoctoral Research Fellow (Current Employee) - Houston, TX - October 17, 2023

Highly hierarchical research environment, professors take the credit for their students’ work, don’t give recognition. Very poor mentorship and lack of support for career advancement.

Experience

Housekeeper (Former Employee) - Houston, TX - October 15, 2023

Everything exactly as one would expect but also not full or boring as every day is different. Just think about what you would want in this role and it's exactly that.

Great researchers, poor organization and management

Research Assistant (Former Employee) - Houston, TX - September 12, 2023

While the research being completed at UTHealth Science is top tier and the individual researchers and health staff are generally great, the management and HR leave a lot to be desired.

benefits are great, work/life is not

Research Assistant (Current Employee) - Houston, TX - September 6, 2023

well it all depends on your department but usually you're going to get overworked and burnt out. UTHealth appears to be liberal but not in work practices in Texas, it's just for the faculty and students. Unfortunately the other staff do not get the same open minded treatment. Also blatant nepotism. BUT benefits are the best in H-Town

Rewarding work

Nurse Practitioner (Current Employee) - Houston, TX - August 30, 2023

It's a rewarding place to work. You make a difference in people's lives. They are hiring more and more NPs to work in the inpatient setting. Pay is low for Psych NPs but their benefit are good.

Great for a student

Assistant Coordinator (Former Employee) - Houston, TX - August 22, 2023

Working at UT Health Houston was a great opportunity as a student. There was enough flexibility and support to manage my studies and do my work. The salary can be a little on the lower end, but having graduate degrees helps.

Great Benefits

Research RN (Current Employee) - TMC - August 4, 2023

Great environment, supportive and great benefits. The management is okay, and very impersonal when it comes to work evaluations. Flexible with time and easy to request PTO.
