Pros

Some of the best people and co-workers you will ever meet are currently working at Penn State. The overall work atmosphere was both inviting and professional, and the resources this research institution has are absolutely incredible and seemingly limitless.

Cons

There is a lack of diversity at the University Park Campus.

Pros

They were very flexible with hours and it was a fun place to work. There was lots of downtime to do other things while on the clock, and an e-bike to get around campus quickly.

Cons

Toward the end they got pretty strict about keeping your computer on a certain tab to take online tickets, and you could get in trouble for not doing it. It’s tedious work overall.

Pros

Great Benefits, Vacation, Sick Days, Personal Days

Cons

parking is normally far away from your building, and normally growth within your unit is difficult, so you have to tranfer to another to grow.
