Employment satisfaction depends on PI, pay is low but sort of offset by IE costs. - Graduate Student Researcher bei UC Riverside: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Great institution serving a diverse student population. Plenty of interesting research labs. Decent benefits.

Commuter school so traffic and parking can be terrible. Select your PI wisely, and ensure healthy work life balance.

Good balance and structure depending on the professor you work for. Good recommendations from professor for life.

Professors will take credit for your work and overwork you at times.
