Pros

This campus of University of California has a very active and open research environment. The campus is nice and beautiful. Faculty and staff members here are very kind and helpful. Very good career service and career opportunities. Pretty good location, not far from big cities, snow resorts and beach.

Cons

Not enough sports facilities. Especially for swimming. Only has a small outdoor pool which is not enough for the summer in riverside. Campus safety needs to be improved. Specially housing and apartments around campus. Very inefficient and poor health center service.

Pros

easy going atmosphere. Hands on work. Lots of different projects. It was fun. UC Riverside has cars that employees can borrow.

Cons

Some people are fustrating to work with and some are completely incompetent. The weather is too hot or too cold because it is in the middle of the desert.
