Pros

-friendly co-workers with great energy -lots of very committed, passionate, and caring staff and faculty -wonderful location. Having City Park across the street makes it easy to take a walk during break or after work. Bike paths and transportation easily accessible. -small enough to create meaningful relationships but large enough to have new faces coming through the door every day

Cons

-Workers are poorly compensated. So many of them go the extra mile, working on weekends in peak seasons, using money out of their pocket to decorate their offices and make their space welcoming, yet salaries and benefits do not reflect this. -The school is managed completely top-to-bottom. Sweeping changes to departments/offices are made routinely without staff/faculty input, resulting in ill-informed decisions with a lack of coordination, transparency, communication, and employee buy-in. -Delgado is a food desert. There are so few food options with a very limited window of accessibility, and the options that are available are seldom wholesome or nutritious. This affects employees and students alike.

Pros

The people in the CWRC are wonderful, helping students can be really fun/fulfilling at times, the availability to work remote evening is great. Especially since students don't always make appointments during your shift and don't always show up to their appointments so there are sometimes weeks where you have plenty of down time. As long as you stay away from office politics, it can be a pretty chill part-time job.

Cons

When it gets busy (midterms & finals), it's BUSY. Sometimes students use the coaches for help with assignments that have nothing to do with writing. If you are a PoC, you're more likely to be booked more often and it can feel unfair when your coworkers sit around with 0-2 appointments per day while you are booked solid for every shift. The dean of the department is more concerned with her legacy than the working conditions for coaches. And considering the required level of education required (Bachelors) , the pay is absolutely ridiculous ($17/hour). Hours are capped at 28/week.
