University of Michigan (U-M) Reviews

What is it like working at University of Michigan (U-M)?

Overworked, Underpaid.
Equipment Manager in Ann Arbor:
Pros: Flexibility, Travel
Cons: Long Hours, Lack of Communication and Transparency
Good benefits, casual, but underpaid.
Software Developer in Ann Arbor:
Pros: Interesting, varied work; casual dress; flexible hours; good colleagues;
Cons: Bureaucracy; politics; chaotic, unstable reporting lines for my division; below-market pay
Software Developer in Ann Arbor:
Good benefits, generous vacation, but low annual monetary compensation. According to PayScale, I'm in the bottom 6 %ile, receiving $35k less than the median. The University, or at least the branch I'm under, seems to rely on people having other reasons besides monetary compensation for staying. My chain of command doesn't understand what I do, or its market value. Fortunately for them, I enjoy it.
Cool.
Custodian in Ypsilanti:

Cons: Nothing
