Pros

-Beautiful campus -Opportunities to collaborate with other departments -Interesting research culture -Good health benefits -For the most part, great student population that works hard (what college doesn't have exceptions?)

Cons

-Few promotional opportunities - administration will praise me verbally for my excellent work but when I ask for compensation to match that quality there always seems to be a reason not to (promotion wait times are 5-7 years, budget cuts, etc.) -Campus can feel a bit siloed at times

Pros

I had a job and could read my books/draw during down time.

Cons

Horrible management. Incredibly aloof staff that does not take POC employees seriously. Also, multitude of microaggressions and straight up racism, Plain attempts of treating their staff without compassion and also putting their staff and students in harm's way during FSU's 2025 school shooting. Staff was told to keep working during an active shooting and even after people had been pronounced dead. This is not simply a testing center issue but a systematic concern of FSU's departments. Pay is also mediocre and only went up recently because of consistent complaints from the employees--not because they wanted to. Plenty of inappropriate behaviors were present while I was working there from upper management. Fawning, favoritism, power trips, blurring boundaries, etc. Parking is awful.
