"I've worked in one of the labs in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, the University of Virginia for 11 months. As a research assistant, the University of Virginia is always a great place that can provide a large kind of resources that can be super helpful. Being one of the top universities, the University of Virginia is able to give researchers a solid background knowledge with all these excellent faculties."

"Working at the University of Virginia School of Medicine comes with its benefits and challenges. The school of medicine has done an exceptional job of recruiting the right people in the right roles. Within the organization, most managers and individual contributors are skilled and driven to learn in order to further the mission of the school. Unfortunately, the school of medicine is highly dependent on external teams and systems across the broader University and Medical Center that make completing projects unnecessarily complex. External teams do not prioritize collaboration with the school of medicine, so even though a project may look successful internally, it will be met with resistance when it comes time to publish and support the ongoing functionality of new tools and information. The salary at the School of Medicine is adequate but there are no onsite perks or team-building opportunities like you might find in a company setting. Overall the UVA School of Medicine is a good place to work but due to the broader organization, it is difficult to see your efforts implemented."
