    Pros

    The campus is beautiful for daily walks.

    The parking is limited so you either get there early or you park very far away from your final destination

    Pros

    There have been some changes recently, but coming into a beautiful campus every day definitely is great. There is a great employee support system with HR who are very receptive to any questions.

    Cons

    Even though it IS primarily a university, having more lunch options on campus during the summer would be excellent.

    Dec 31, 2021 - Social Media Coordinator

    Current Employee, more than 5 years

    Faculty and Staff are both welcoming and extremely supportive. I've enjoyed my time here.

    Nov 18, 2016 - Research Assistant in Winston-Salem, NC
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Laid back department with great resources and connections. Great work environment! There are many opportunities to collaborate across the university or with other labs at the medical school campus.

    Cons

    Expectations aren't always clear. The current chemistry department needs severe remodeling. Teaching labs can be a big headache because of poor communication with previous lab coordinators and overall disorganization of information.

    worth it but frustrating

    Apr 4, 2022 - Resident Advisor 
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    This is one of the highest-paying student jobs on campus and was great for developing conflict-resolution skills

    Cons

    Upper-level supervisors, with some exceptions, were often disconnected to the issues facing the undergraduate resident advisors and entirely ignored placement preferences

    Good place to work

    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Great campus, and plenty of events you can join in even as a grad student. Housing and cost of living overall in the area is cheap.

    Cons

    Pay is low (for graduate students, not for staff/faculty), but you're going to find that at most places. The cost of a parking pass was ridiculous.
