Pros

Great Student Worker environment. Supervisors are very nice and easy going people, at least for my department. I got a lot of free stuff like T-shirts during my time there.

Cons

Horrible HR, messed up my paperwork and took 3 months to resolve a payroll issue. Unstable hours, but it depends on the department.

Pros

The campus is diverse and the students are awesome to work with. It is very rewarding to see non traditional or first generation students find their dream job or get into graduate school.

Cons

The salaries are not high enough to live comfortably in Southern California. Especially in Riverside. Some departments are not supportive of hybrid schedules even though most meetings are online.
