- 1.0Nov 29, 2023BLANK AST 3Current Employee, more than 8 yearsSan Diego, CA
Pros
Here you work for a LARGE healthcare organization who hires majority of employees as pier diem so they don't have to offer you healthcare insurance benefits. They automatically take 7.5% from your payheck for pension. AND no one tells you at the orientation that YOU DO NOT NEED TO GIVE THE UNION 2% OF YOUR PAY !! If it is a union position, you will represented by the union. Under U.S. Supreme Court ruling Janus v. AFSCME, public employees can no longer be required to pay union dues or fees as a condition of employment. If you DID sign the unions membership form, good luck trying to stop them from deducting 2% from your paycheck! AFSCME deceives employees into signing membership forms (which they never provide a copy to you) with fine print waiving their right to resign except during a short annual window period.
Cons
You can convert to a career position without the unions help by filling out a form on the UCSD website after you are an employee for a year and have worked 1000 hours.

There is very little room for growth within the clinical trials department. The pay is good for entry level positions but not competitive as you grow in your career.
