      Pros

      Flexible work hours (depending on department), good health care plans, great location, get to make a difference with students

      Cons

      Administration seems out of touch with the needs of employees, compensation does not necessarily progress with years of experience

      Lots of turnover due to low salary, yearly budget cuts, increasing demands on workload with higher expectations and more students

      the GMU child development center

      Pros

      You basically get to play with little kids all day, which is great. They go according to the university's schedule, so that means a month off for the winter holidays! Also, they serve lunch to staff (which is the same lunch they give to the kids) so you really don't have to worry about spending money on food.

      Cons

      Unfortunately, if you are not a lead teacher or assistant teacher, you are not able to have a full time position. This means that you will not receive any sort of raise in salary, and you also will not be allowed to work more than 30 hours a week. Also, this job is not for the faint of heart.....you will see lots of bodily fluids and probably catch all manner of bugs while working here-yes, this includes pink eye.
