Pros
Excellent retirement benefits, discounted gym membership, and other perks. Once you pass your six months probation period you have significant job security. UCLA is filled with incredibly intelligent staff and there are countless people that are willing to mentor new staff. Thankfully I had a manager that encouraged everyone in our department to focus on professional development and was very accommodating.
Cons
Low pay compared to other organizations. There is no clear way to provide feedback or ideas to upper management. Unions can be difficult to deal with and might not always have your best interest at heart. Other workers may hate working or be bad at their job but they stay and are not fired.
