80 Johns Hopkins University Reviews

"In recent years, there has been a push within JHU for professors to commercialize their research. A number of professors are taking advantage of this so now is probably a good time if you're more interested in patents and potentially working for a startup."

"As a postdoctoral researcher at Johns Hopkins University I am able to participate in cutting-edge projects in a face-paced, collaborative environment. My peers are among the brightest in their respective fields and constantly push me to learn new skills and sharpen old ones. The benefits include health, vision and dental as well as access to a state-of-the-art fitness center. Between Peabody, Homewood and the JHU-MICA film center, there is always plenty to do without leaving Hopkins. In addition Baltimore offers much by way of food, art and nightlife."

"I worked at CCHR for a year and it is a great place to work. But since I prefer more opportunity for growth, it is not a good place for me."

"It's great. Really cool crowd, lots of talented people."

"Johns Hopkins has played a few too many stunts on my classmates and I, to rate as better than three stars. However, it is still a major name and something that I am proud to be a part of."

"I would like to say that the company and people here are very friendly and helpful. I think that it is a great place to work."

"I have worked for the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab for eight years, and for the Johns Hopkins University for over 20 years. Both organizations have a very important mission - to help educate our youth and protect our armed forces. Their staff are dedicated to these missions."

"JHU is a great university that offers various excellent courses with projects that help in improving overall your skill sets in the field of statistics and programming."

"I was the teaching assistant for electrical engineering course in 2014 summer on LMU site in Los Angeles. This was my first working experience. I learned a lot and had a very good working experience with a group of very professional and dedicated teams."

"I participated in a summer internship for bioinformatics."

"Good position for next step. Salary is not excellent but benefits are relatively good."

"JHU is a good place to study at."

"I will preface this with that my employment at JHU APL seems to be abnormal. I was hired under the pretense that I would be doing some less than desirable work for a few months (max of 4) and then be moved onto another project. A year went by and I was still doing the undesirable work, so I left."

"The work is great, but the entrenched management is sclerotic and unresponsive. Focus has gone away from PI initiated research to project manager directed work based on sponsor relationships. So the place is starting to resemble a Lockheed or a Boeing."

"JHUAPL has too many layers of bureaucracy for a research focused organization. To little of the budget is spent on new research projects for a university affiliated laboratory. The lab is becoming just another beltway bandit."
