Pros

HR will tell you that they cannot pay you more because your pay is capped by the union contract. This is a lie. The union contract regulates MINIMUM pay. NYU can pay you anything above the amounts set in the contract. Push for more and tell them the contract regulates minimum pay. You deserve it and they can pay it.

Cons

HR never approves raises. Never. So get the highest salary you can when you get hired because you will only get the union contract raises after that. The union is great and fights for you but NYU makes it impossible to get more. They don't value the lowest people. It's all about the faculty. So fight for yourself.

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.
