Business Outlook
Pros
OHSU contributes 12% of your salary to a retirement plan for you. I have not come across any other research university that offers that kind of retirement compensation. Also, you can earn up to 5 weeks vacation.
Cons
There are a lot of dead weight employees working there. These are people that most likely couldn't make it anywhere else. The university hires them because their cheap. OHSU needs to develop a better career path for junior researchers. If you are a senior research associate working in a lab you will be doing the same job for the rest of your career. The university should recruit some of these people into other positions.
