Pros

Good pay, benefits, co-workers are awesome, hours can be good, overtime if you want it, seeing nice sights outside without much fear,

Cons

The extra board SUCKS. You don’t find out your schedule until 5:00 the night before if you’re lucky. You work a 14+ hour window, “occasionally” working outside your window turns into every day. You get no life the years you’re on the board. You are basically enslaved the them. There’s very little reason to publish the schedule a day in advance, on paper. They say you’ll never work overtime on your day off if you don’t want to, but they pressure into saying yes. You’re working with the public and therefor people treat you as an object not a human (not the fault of UTA, just something to consider).

Good benefits and lots of advancement opportunities. The people are great to work with as well. I enjoy the goals and objectives of the company to provide public transit.

Cons

The same as most jobs, but nothing worth mentioning specifically.
