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.

Qu’est-ce qui est le plus positif à propos de la culture et de l’environnement de votre entreprise?

Respect and collaboration at the departmental level.

Quelles sont les meilleures choses à propos de votre équipe?

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.

Pourquoi vous sentez-vous sous-évalué et qu’est-ce qui vous rassurerait par rapport à votre rémunération?

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.

Qu’est-ce qui vous plaît le plus dans l’équipe de direction?

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.
