You have to be Clever to gain - werkgeversreview Anonieme werknemer bij Penn State

Salary, position and promotion are very unsatisfactory. Like everywhere, the PIs try to exploit to the maximum extent, no ethics. Mostly people coming from abroad lack this commercial outlook and also due to their visa restrictions, get exploited. Most of the PIs themselves are mediocre level of researchers struggling for their own survival and beneftis, so will think about the benefit of students or employees only if benefiting the employees benefits themselves. Health insurance costs much more compared with universities in other states. Salaries of Postdocs /RAs are very less in comparison to other places.
