"The benefits are excellent, including time off and education premiums. If you get into the right department, you can succeed.
This is definitely an employer where I would take "any" job to get in the door and work from there. "

"At most, employees are expected to work 40 hours each week. But that depends on which department you work for. Some types of workers like exempt employees and non-union managers have the option to work from home, but up to the discretion of your manager and office. Most folks don't have this option."

"There is no standard across the university. Many departments are great places to work where they allow flexing time and understand that parents need time off to take care of their kids but it isn't a guarantee."

"This was when I was employed as a TA. When I was a fellow, I was allowed to take off as much time as I felt was reasonable (ended up being 6-8 weeks I believe)."
