Is this your company?

Pros

It was very rewarding helping many of the students there. The 18 to 25 years can be very difficult and my job was to make that kind of difference.

Cons

You are responsible for the safety of 900 students during a eight hour period and it could be stressfull.

Pros

Great benefits! Lots of sick time holidays off. and summers are very laid back. Wish I could have stayed longer as I saw my time there as a great career opportunity. But toxicity, harassment and layoffs made me rethink staying

Cons

Management is incredibly toxic. Even after union grievances, sexual harassment claims and even a warning from the dean, managers continue to abuse staff. Incredibly sad seeing as Boston University rather lay off good employees than hold anyone from management accountable for their actions.
