"UMSL is a great place to work. The benefits are amazing, and make up for the middling pay. My boss is by far the best boss I've ever had. He gives me great autonomy in my job, and dictates what I should be working on, but not how I should be working. He trusts me to be productive, and I repay that trust."

University of Missouri Employee

"Working as a graduate student is not worth it. You are underpaid for the work you do, and ultimately your work serves to benefit your advisors and the university more than it does yourself or anyone else. I would not recommend that anyone go to graduate school."

"The Assessment Resource Center is an excellent place to work. The people are great and the technology is excellent. As part of the University of Missouri, the benefits are good, but the pay is generally lower than what you could expect elsewhere. If you're looking for a graduate degree and want help, this is a good place."
