Pros

Free education, but not in all Colleges. Beautiful campus. Great town. Many great people working for the University.

Cons

You have to pay to park at your own job (in rural Central Pennsylvania). In my department, pay was much lower, and time off was minimal, compared to most other employees I knew working for this University and others.

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.
