Great social opportunities but long hours and downtime - Orientation Leader Michigan State University Employee Review

Flexible schedule and remote work available

Low payment and sometimes need to work at midnight

The people in the plant sciences are overall kind and amazing. There are exceptions, but the people love what they do and I feel lucky to be a part of the community.

MSU does not want to provide TAships to graduate students since we are more expensive than hiring a lecturer, which isn't great if you want to work at a PUI after your PhD. (It depends on the department.)
