Pros
Free part time education Hours are pretty straight forward Good amount of time off
Cons
different departments can be clique-y for my taste Almost no chance for advancement or raise No real work from home available
Advice to Management
Upper Management needs to check on their middle management. Middle Management has a different idea on how Mason works and they run it that way. Upper Management has lofty ideas that only work if they force middle management to implement them.

Pros
Diverse Community, Division Support, Close to DC, Safe campus
Cons
While the pay is comparable to other schools, it could be higher for an actual living wage. There is a lot of construction happening on campus which makes navigating it hard. A surprising amount of conservative ideals for such a diverse community.

Pros
Very flexible working time and cool professors

Advice to Management
Improve the health insurance plan. Adding dental health plans

Pros
The benefits are solid, there's a state retirement (after 5 years) and there are no long/weekend hours.

Pros
Really enjoyed my time working at the Fenwick library as an office assistant. Fairly easy work for student and got to work a lot with MS suite, tracking electronic resources and data usage on various platforms. No micromanaging and a fun, positive working environment.
Cons
None. Great to start gaining some work experience.
