Pros

The reason I am working for the University is because I'm currently a student here. It gives me the opportunity to work at a very fair wage and gain insight into the inner workings of the department of the University that I work for. The people that I work with are great, and the office environment is very relaxed. I show up to work in jeans and a t-shirt and that is acceptable because I'm a student employee. I am also able to set my own hours most days as long as i check with my boss first, which is a huge plus for me.

Cons

The position I have is only Summer employment, so I will only have it for the next few months. The job isn't exactly what I would call exciting, but I do get to be inside and sitting down at a computer most of the time. Mostly the job is data entry and making copies or assembling materials for seminars. Though, some days it is just data entry, and 6 consecutive hours of doing data entry can be seriously mind numbing. Another downside is that none of my co-workers are my age, all of them are significantly older than me, so going out after work with people from the office isn't exactly the best option on a Friday night.

Pros

Lots of vacation and good benefits. Smart people to work with.

Cons

I encountered extensive gender discrimination while at IU. The 'old boys club' is really a 'young boys club' with poor social skills pervading the workplace. The limited options mean that the salaries can be kept low.
