Pros

Great benefits package, relatively good people to work with, looks great on the resume.

Cons

-No room for advancement. You'll be pigeonholed into the role of an administrative assistant forever. -The (some) students here have terrible egos and lack basic common sense. -The pay is what it is. Grateful to be working but for what is being paid and the work that's being done, it's depressing.
