Arizona State University reviews

The school is not highly ranked among others in chemistry and life sciences although its no 5 in number of articles published in top journals like Nature and Science. Moreover, I think George Poste was an outstanding leader for Biodesign Inst. for the last 5 years but is now moving on for another position within ASU, posing a slow down for the extreme growth he led through the last few years.

With serious state budget cuts, the university is forced to make signifcant personnel cuts,, implement mandatory furloughs and cut departmental budgets. These measurements created a terrible work environment where employees feel absolutely no job security and worry whether they will make the next round of cuts. Employees must pay the full rate for parking passes, which can cost up to $700+ if you want to park near your building. Also, the pay is considerably low versus your experience and level of education. While the number of employees decreases, the amount of work remains the same, leaving remaining employees to do the job of several with no raises in sight.
