Columbia University benefits has become unaffordable to its employees. Columbia has been giving a lot of cut backs.

Strong retirement benefits, decent health and dental, some flexibility on time off, some flexibility on hours, decent tuition benefits- especially for children of employees. All in all, you get decent benefits but low wages.

I got pretty much nothing, as a student employee, I did not receive health or any standard benefits. I also did not receive sick days.

Best thing about Columbia University is their tuition benefit. Unfortunately it is not applicable to spouses, only employee and his/her child(ren).
