Pluspunten

As a graduate research assistant, the staff at Tech is very good about giving you the technology and equipment you need to get the job done. There are numerous computer software packages available to you for both work and home use, as well as providing an excellent grad student salary relative to the cost of living in Atlanta. Also, fees and insurance can be deducted from future paychecks over the term, rather than paying up front.

Minpunten

The main downside that I found was having to pay 100% of the cost of health insurance, and this insurance not including dental coverage. Previous grad student employers of mine had included the cost of health insurance as part of the package. In addition, the fees left for us to pay are rather high compared with other schools. Full tuition is remitted, however fees and insurance typically leave the student employee with a bill of $1000 - $1200 per semester.

Great Benefits. That was it

Minpunten

The pay is egregiously bad. My boss would commonly talk about how teachers are underpaid while unaware that teachers actually make more than financial analysts at Georgia Tech. They have also recently instituted a return to work policy that requires all staff to be back on site 5 days a week. This has led to a lot of turnover and hiring has not kept up from what I've seen leading to overworked employees. In my 2.5 years at tech I realized that the vast majority of people are just trying to run out the clock so they can cash their pension in. This leads to very few motivated workers and it is an easy trap to fall into. Little financial incentives to progress. No end of year bonuses, little annual raises if any at all, and no senior analyst roles mean there are few financial incentives to "try". When I started they had analyst levels 1 through 3 but that abolished and everyone was put under the title of analyst. Overall I would not recommend to anyone unless you are a student looking for expirence.
