Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"I have been at Rensselaer for four years and it is an enjoyable place. I have worked at the school in four different positions. The positions being chemistry mentor, chemistry tutor, assistant to the deans, and as a conference coordinator. Each position was enjoyable and very educational."

"RPI offers a great variety of learning experiences and is a great place for graduate research. I have found though that the administration seems to care very little about anything besides bringing in their own paychecks. They often stifle student free speech and have lied and hidden information from students, faculty, and the community. In all, the professors here are great, but the administration is not."

"Good colleagues but employees are not appreciated nearly as much as they should be. High stress and unorganized environment."

"I've worked with RPI in a research capacity for two summers, where I worked on projects under two different professors. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the resources available to me. Professors and staff alike were always willing to help."

"I have been a Ph.D. student at RPI for 5 years. I have found the experience to be invigorating."

"I'm working as a graduate student researcher at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Since I started this job in October 2019, I have gained much guidance from my professors and fellow colleagues. I have sharpened my data analytics skills and social networking skills. Moreover, I also gotten exposure to the real industry by conducting research on it. The work atmosphere is very amicable, which makes working here a real joy."

"I have good experience working at RPI."

"working at RPI as a graduate student is fine for the industry average"

"none, no positives at all stay clear"

"Great place. Excellent supervisor, good people to work with, great availability of tools to get your job done!"

"The compensation was fixed and it was a low stress position. I worked with other students and there was no set objective that was left to us to decide. My team did pretty well to create a book selling and trading website that any student could use. I also had Facebook and other social site integration."

"I was in RPI's PhD program for a year before dropping out to pursue regular employment. It was a decent place to work and they compensated me very well with tuition and a stipend. I didn't have specific issues with RPI, just with graduate school in general. RPI is an excellent school with a lot of talented people."

"I've worked here for 5 years. I am experiencing a set of research challenges and meeting great people in RPI. This professional environment is one of my working motivations."

"Nice products, great owners to work for."

"RPI is a great school to work for a PhD. Secured funding through your studies for most majors. Good school reputation and good career opportunists after graduation."
