"Graduate research assistant positions are overall a good pick in the sciences. The flexibility is unparalleled with any other job. The compensation, sure, is not great, but one can find ways, plus you are getting a free graduate degree, if you were to add tuition to your salary, it adds up to a good salary for someone with a BS or a BA."

"I have worked with UMMS for 8 years. I find the company to be stuck in bureaucracy that limits the abilities of the IT Dept across all levels. I find the people I have worked with to be competent on most occasions but also see a tendency to promote based on time with the organization over skill sets and demonstrated abilities. I would recommend UMMS as a safe and stable workplace for someone looking to get a start in IT but not and end all be all as they tend to rely on outdated technologies and are slow to change."
