I worked at University of Colorado Denver part-time for more than a year
Pros
Informative and hands-on experience through the application process. Everyone is welcoming, super helpful, and I built a lot of great friendships with my coworkers.
Cons
The workload in the operations team can become a little overwhelming depending on the season if team is missing members, which happens rarely.

Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at University of Colorado Denver full-time for more than 3 years
Pros
Great vacation/sick leave, 10% contribution by university into your retirement, tuition benefit, flexible schedule
Cons
Low pay (be expected to start at very low end of range) and advancement opportunities are extremely limited. Raises are few and far between. You have to pay for parking (as high as $97 per month). Culture needs improvement. No loyalty to lab staff. You are replaceable.
Advice to Management
There should be an option to cash out vacation time to help boost take home pay. Salaries are not competitive with the Denver market. The salary bands are very misleading. There is division amongst PI/Admin and lab staff.

I have been working at University of Colorado Denver full-time for more than a year
Pros
My coworkers who are my peers overall get along great and it makes for a fun atmosphere. We are also compensated well with benefits and PTO.
Cons
There seems to be a lack of communication from the leaders to the "Entry-level" employees and it feels like a lack of any encouragement.

Pros
Their flexibility with scheduling
Cons
Not a lot of opportunities for advancement unless you actually leave your job and apply elsewhere
Advice to Management
Be more transparent with income and benefits because overall income is not great but many think that the salary evens out to be a good income with including the benefits
