Pros

Rewarding helping out students, the pay is good for a part-time job, the hours are flexible, it works well with your academic schedule as a WPI CS student.

Cons

You can be overworked if you don't know how to set boundaries. You're given a set number of hours a week you can work, don't let any professor say you are required to work for more time than you are paid.

Pros

Can be pretty easy if most of your work is office hours. I had about seven hours a week and most of the time there weren't many students.

Cons

Grading was a lot harder than I expected. Pretty demoralizing honestly; a lot of clearly ChatGPT submissions (ECE programming class mostly with freshmen who'd never seen code before, so not surprising). Grading paper exams was fine.
