Rice University

Is this your company?

One of the top schools in the country but it's run like a mom and pop shop. - Anonymous employee Rice University Employee Review

Pros

Privately funded, so some job security. Decent benefits. Good work-life balance.

Cons

Internal processes and practices are ancient. No room for growth. No appreciation for quality employees. Unclear career path. The pay is not competitive, except for the executives, and remains stagnant. HR policies that would make a real HR exec cringe. Extreme nepotism with regard to hiring.
