      Incredible benefits, some departments need to improve work-life balance

      Administrative assistant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Fantastic health/retirement benefits. 5% employer match for 401k, plus a pension after 3 years of service - Competitive pay - Interesting, creative, often brilliant colleagues - Diverse range of growth opportunities - Commitment by administration to create the best work environment possible - Great time off benefits

      Cons

      - Very competitive, prestigious environment means that managers in some departments (especially those with a history at MIT) make excessive demands on time - Workloads in some departments can be unrealistic

      A generally good place to work

      Research associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very good benefits, and a lot of freedom to pursue your work and build professional connections. There is a lot going on at different parts of the institute and MIT can provide a good launching pad for a research career.

      Cons

      MIT is large and there is a lot going on. It is easy to feel lost or isolated, especially if your work is independent and you don't have much supervision. Human Resources can be very bureaucratic and any adminstrative problems with salary, benefits, etc. can be tricky to fix.

      Good balance of odd and functional

      Lecturer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It's good to work with students (faculty, colleagues) who are smart and focused and energetic. Engineers are often pleasantly odd people.

      Cons

      At the far end of odd, people can be inflexible and misfocused. Tolerance for strange behavior can shade into a failure to enforce any kind of norms.
