Pros

Teaching allows for some flexibility; you don't have to be in an office all day

Lecturers are pretty lowly and don't get increases in salary. The pretty much couldn't care less about you -- you're expendable.

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.
