University of Massachusetts Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"The university recently took on a new CIO and he has worked hard to change the culture. Unfortunately his big ideas have misfired several times along the way and instead of energizing the work force and removing barriers he's created an atmosphere of fear that fosters cronyism. The best employees have recognized this and found new opportunities which leaves mostly sycophants and incompetents. Some good people, but an unfortunate turn."

"I worked as a Teaching Assistant at UMass Lowell for 2 years, and the tuition waiver, plus the $20/hr that comes with it is quite good. The only drawback is that in order to be a TA you MUST do a thesis."

"OK, it is just an on-campus job."

"Great place to work with an awesome atmosphere."

"Umass has been good to me overall over the years. Their recent struggles have forced me to look for more work aggressively, but doesn't change the fact that they are still a decent company to work for."

"I've been a research assistant for about six months now in the economics department at UMass and it has been a great experience. I've gotten to know my professors better and gained a better understanding of economics as a subject and profession."

"I'v been PhD student in UMass Amherst for five years. I love the campus life here."

"I worked here as a teaching and research assistant for last 7 years. I will highly recommend this institute for prospective job seekers."

"Was a very good job until UMass lost the contract."

"Mostly good experience, but the culture there was not a great fit for me."
