      Not bad for government work! - Research Scientist UTHealth Houston Employee Review

      Pros

      Great insurance and health care benefits. Not incredibly stressful work environment. Seems like a government job, for better and worse.

      Cons

      The pay is ok but not great compared to similar universities/hospitals. Parking is inconvenient and expensive. Due to being a government run organization, it is bureaucratic and overly structured, sometimes giving advancement opportunities based on length of employment rather than talent.

      Pros

      Respect between colleagues and bosses

      Cons

      The pay is not very competitive, but it is only a student research assistant position and is more about the experience
