”UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Penn State ranked No. 21 among all large U.S. employers — public, private and nonprofit — for new college graduates entering the workforce, according to Forbes magazine’s recently released 2023 “America’s Best Employers for New Grads” survey.

Penn State also is the highest-rated higher education employer on the list and one of only three higher education institutions in the top 50 this year. According to the Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry, Penn State is the ninth largest employer in the state.

“Penn State offers many attributes that appeal to new professionals entering the workforce, including significant paid time off, flexibility in scheduling, and a competitive benefits package,” said Jennifer Wilkes, vice president for Human Resources and chief human resources officer at the University. “It also presents opportunities to pursue advanced education at a reduced cost through the University’s tuition discount, as well as many locations across the commonwealth at which to pursue employment.””

I wonder why they didn't state how good their pay scale is. Actually, I don't because it is not good nor competitive. However, I have heard in the past 6 months they have been realizing that and now increasing some pay scales.

Psu as the 9th largest employer in the state. Yikes. Need more large companies in the state and psu needs to reduce the administrator to the administrator to the administrator positions so tuition can come down.

When we’re #9, the correct answer is that we deserve better. #1 is always the goal.
