Pros

On-campus and convenient. We get a meal only if we work a minimum of 4 hours. Flexible schedule for students. Study break for one shift.

Cons

I have been here for a while and corporate keeps making things worse. Because of a few bad apples who take advantage of the system and leave, we are restricted to $10 a meal for a meal voucher - no Aramark place sells a filling meal for just $10. And you have to pay extra if it is over. A lot of the places have restricted hours - you can only get starbucks with a meal voucher if you go at a certain time. Corporate is also stingy about very small, irrelevant, and unimportant things. If you are a student, you can either be student worker or supervisor, but you can't move up beyond that. Raises are not as frequent as they should be. Current manager isn't bad but they aren't always good and are sometimes exploitative,
