      Pros

      - Lots of great people - Lots of benefits - Room to grow (if you're willing to try new things) - Interacting with students is great

      Cons

      - Very political - It takes things a long time to get done because of how slow some departments are. - You can only really move in the company if you're willing to leave departments.

      Pros

      They were very flexible with hours and it was a fun place to work. There was lots of downtime to do other things while on the clock, and an e-bike to get around campus quickly.

      Cons

      Toward the end they got pretty strict about keeping your computer on a certain tab to take online tickets, and you could get in trouble for not doing it. It’s tedious work overall.
