Pros

Benefits like vacation (2 weeks first year, 3 after that and they let you accrue a lot of time off before you have to use it). Tuition reimbursement is great and they pre-pay $750 of the tuition for your first class.

Cons

There isn't much room for advancement for administrative assistants so you're pretty much pigeonholed into that role for your department, even if you excel in other areas, like web design.
