Pros

It's a job that pays more than minimum. There is the occasional free meal, and it's better than many other places.

Cons

"Corporate" politics rule, nothing can really get done with out going through ~15 committees approval and anything new takes forever to get done. By the time it gets through all that it's out dated and the generally know to be the wrong way to do things, but they use it anyways.

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

Great Benefits, Vacation, Sick Days, Personal Days

Cons

parking is normally far away from your building, and normally growth within your unit is difficult, so you have to tranfer to another to grow.
