Boston University

Is this your company?

Does not value faculty at all, salary is below market, no work-life balance. - Associate Professor Boston University Employee Review

Pros

BU is a relatively well-known institution, so that brings about other opportunities for consulting.

Cons

Expect to work 60-80 hours per week for an wage that you can't live on in the Boston area. Almost no sense of community or morale. Everyone is too busy working like mad just to survive that the culture is isolating.
