Pros

Experience, Friendly faculty, hours are fair but depends on your schedule for work - tickets vary in numbers depending on problems that staff and faculty encounter

Cons

Long days can be a drag - sometimes there is no work to be done but you can not just leave

Pros

They were very flexible with hours and it was a fun place to work. There was lots of downtime to do other things while on the clock, and an e-bike to get around campus quickly.

Cons

Toward the end they got pretty strict about keeping your computer on a certain tab to take online tickets, and you could get in trouble for not doing it. It’s tedious work overall.

Pros

flexibility. I'm on a fellowship I won with a great advisor. It is not so good for others.

Cons

An inherently liminal position with severely reduced benefits.
