Pros

Benefits are great. Most of your co-workers will be decent people.

Cons

When you are an admin aide or in the clerical union the university does not give you raises outside what is required by the contract. They also refuse to be flexible about schedules or time off. Especially Arts & Science. STAY AWAY. A&S is an Awful HR department. When the rest of the world is trying to work with employees to make them feel appreciated and offering flexible schedules it's like they are determined to make your life harder.

Pros

Good benefits, friendly office, easy work, good pay. Worked FT in the summer.

Cons

Grad Assistant / advisors were required to do drop-in advising hours. Which is fine except we didn't have access to a lot, so we couldn't help students half the time. Because of the union you could only work 20 hours / week. Which honestly sucked because the work was easy and I would've loved to pick up a few more hours.
