Easy and Meaningful - Research Assistant Oregon Research Institute Employee Review

Collaborative structure, great benefits, caring staff

unstable funding, so not as much job security

I find working at ORI to be a very positive atmosphere. I feel all my work is recognized and appreciated. It is better than what I was expecting of an internship. I learned more in 3 months as an intern than a full year in school.

The only downside to ORI is just the downside to working for any research company which is that when grants aren't getting improved hours can be fairly low. However, as an intern and part time worker I really didn't feel much heat from this personally.
