What's the office vibe like at UT Southwestern Medical Center?

Top Employee Response

UTSW is a large institution with many different departments which all will have different office styles, not one-size-fits-all. I work in a division within the psychiatry department and it is pretty laid back in-office. PRO-my dress is business casual, heels and suit certainly not required. We have leave request forms for taking time off and we submit timesheets every 2 weeks to our supervisor. Lunch is usually an hour or a half-hour, we work out schedule with supervisor. As a whole institution: Exempt employees don't get paid overtime (can take up to 4hr off without recording vacation/sick time because it's expected they're having to stay overtime some days); non-exempt employees swipe in and out on time cards and have to request in advance if need to work overtime. CON-get paid once a month on the 1st, rather than biweekly.
