Pros

Gained experience in experimental design, knowledge about niche research interests.

Cons

Extremely low pay and long working hours with high expectations. I was paid 2000 monthly. Not biweekly. No one was supportive of my goals of entering the private biotech field. Apparently there is a feud between researchers in academia and researchers in private industry. It is saddening to see. PI's invest in you more if you want to enter academia.

I absolutely loved volunteering here. The program was organized, and it made me so happy to bring a smile to people's faces.

Sometimes we did not have much contact with the heads of the volunteer program.

Pros

None that I can possibly share. This is by far the worst place I've ever worked for and I absolutely regret applying here. Save yourself, don't apply, don't stay long.

Cons

Revolving door in every department. HR is a disaster. People are underpaid and burned out. UCHealth spreads like a parasite in Colorado by purchasing hospitals, underpaying employees, and not competing with pricing. Worst yet, it does not pay taxes at Coloradan's expense. DORA and UCHealth are supported by the state and if you are discriminated you will find no justice. Absolute corruption. They need to be audited and penalized by the state more often for many reasons.
