Pros

1. Vacation days 2. Free education 3. Easy work 4. Benefits 5. Entry-level

Cons

1. Disorganized : Internal departments don't communicate with each other due to massive amount of ego's which ultimately leads towards hurting the student population. 2. Leadership: Majorly under qualified for their positions (expect for the current president of the university). Majority managers have an education degree and clearly don't know how to manage their staff that leads everyone quiting. If you involve HR they look the other way. 3. Unprofessional Behavior: Older staff are agist towards the younger staff because of their own insecurities about learning the proper skills to make the job more efficient. 4. Management: Hypocrites! Rules are for one individual and it doesn't apply to others even in the same position.

Pros

Come in on time, keep it low key and you can be here for ever.

Cons

Varies from department to department, but mostly overworked and underpaid, not the place to make real money, salaries are a complete joke, more than that an insult. Supervisors are required to be inept to get those positions. People on high ranking places are good at finding a scapegoat than at fixing problems, to fix problems they relay on intimidation and seat back to have someone that's working for peanuts solve the real issues, then take the credit. Discrimination... Minorities do not stand a chance of growing here, they have to leave, and usually they do within 2 years.

Pros

The pace of work is easy. No one ever gets fired and the work is not that difficult.

Cons

Nothing ever changes. No one is rewarded for thinkning creatively so no one ever does.
