Pros

If you're a student there are ample opportunities to find fairly well paying jobs with an incredible amount of flexibility.

Cons

Sometimes difficult to manage school work with actual employment. More of an issue for students from low income households though.

It was convenient, it was nearby and able to work with busy school schedule. My supervisors were really nice and understanding

Cons

The pay wasn't that great but being a student it was okay. That was not my sole source of income.

Great benefits. Is respectful of employees, provides professional development opportunities. Lots of smart people.

Cons

Since it's a huge organization, it's a bit rigidly bureaucratic in terms of HR, purchasing policies, opportunities for advancement.
