Rutgers University reviews

I was by far the most organized person there. A lot of my work involved wading through the layers of bureaucracy just to get simple things done, like copies of class materials. I think that people's experience depends on the professor they are working for. In my case the prof. was a great guy and easy to work for, but in interacting with the other people in administration I found that there is a frustrating amount waste. While there are some very helpful and nice people working at Rutgers, I thought that far too many were lazy, and they often acted like they were doing me a favor by simply doing their jobs.

As with any state institution there are elements of the University who want to put forth a minimal effort and get a maximal reward. There are many people who go above and beyond with everything that they do, but there are also those who only do enough to get by or who are constantly handing off their work to other people who are already overburdened.
