University of Washington reviews

Great people, an overwhelming amount of resources, and excellent benefits. Pay is about average, but the time and flexibility are offsets that are highly valued.

The Seattle Campus is in the heart of the city and commuting to work is the biggest downfall, parking is also expensive.

Casual attire and free subsidized public transportation, as well as company matched 7.5% retirement.

Leadership teams are great at providing support. They have open channels for engagement and opinions are heard.

I think some additional structure to new employee onboarding would be beneficial and internal opportunities for growth and pay increases wouldn't hurt considering the average pay for some positions are lower than their private counterparts.

Be yourself! Be honest and let your good work speak for itself. Ask what your skills can do for the institutional goals at the role you're applying to.

Great benefits package and extremely flexible accommodations to working hours and hybrid/remote access.

Salary tends to be slightly lower than other similar positions, but the retirement matching and benefits are a fair trade off.

The autonomy of working without direct leadership as a professional on self-prioritizes projects.

Passion of people you work with, energy of working at a university

Opportunities for upward mobility are limited

Learning from other classes, peers, collegial collaboration

Work environment and challenges one to learn and grow more

Can get messy when people don't clean up after their projects
