UC Berkeley – UC Berkeley pays their researchers the bare minimum they feel they can get away with; that is to say, their average salaries for researchers do not keep up with the extraordinary cost of living in/near Berkeley. We have wonderful departments, but the UC system as a whole is a poor employer.

Was ist am positivsten an Kultur und Umgang in Ihrem Unternehmen?
Respect and collaboration at the departmental level.
Was sind einige der besten Dinge an Ihrem Team?
This is a top university because of its academic professionals at the departmental levels. These function at a high level *in spite* of upper administration, not thanks to the policy directions set by UC as a whole.
Warum fühlen Sie sich unterbewertet und was würde Sie bei Ihrer Vergütung besser fühlen lassen?
Post-Doc compensation at UC is competitive with national averages ... while UCB is located in one of the most expensive areas of the country. Would you be happy with 4.5k/month pay (before taxes), if the average 2-bedroom apt near your place of work costs 3.5k/month? I am not.
Was gefällt dir am besten am Führungsteam?
My colleagues at the departmental level are professionals at the top of their fields, and are a joy to work for/with. This is in stark contrast with upper level UC administration, who adopt a policy of paying researchers only enough to scrape by, but not enough to thrive or raise a family near UCB.
