      Good place to work - Associate Director Columbia University Employee Review

      Pros

      Vacation and demand of job are in line with compensation. Management is supportive of initiatives, but the process for promotion feels like a dangling carrot.

      Cons

      Compensation is LOW. The 80% of the work done by 20% of the staff is in full effect here. Coworkers knowledge in other departments is extremely low.

      Pros

      If you a PhD student, you never have to worry about money or funding. Professors have a lot of funding for different research projects.

      Cons

      The EE department/professors are not very supportive of the PhD students. Most of them are not typically patient with students if they are taking their time with projects. They replace them with new students.
