University of Kentucky Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"The University of Kentucky is a great place to work. People are generally very friendly and helpful. It is more laid back than Universities in bigger cities."

"Hostile coworkers in other groups. Direct coworkers were great people."

"I have worked for the university for 14 years. Working within the culture of an academic unit, one is not rewarded for accomplishment alone, one must attend class and continue the education process."

"I've worked for this lab since the beginning of this year. The co-workers are very friendly. And the lab equipment is advanced. I like it very much."

"I worked at The University of Kentucky for over a year and a half. The town is wonderful. The group I worked with was going through restructuring and had financial issues at the time, so the environment was not stable for the long term (though this may have changed since I left). At the time, it seemed that people were treading water or going through the motions, in need of a long-term plan."

"I become a UK Mechanical Engineering MS student since 08-2012 and expect to achieve my MS degree on 08-2014."
