Pros

Easy commute. Defined benefits state pension. Many great colleagues. The Rio model of online education is valuable to know because it is heavily favored by CFO's.

Cons

A large contingent of frustrated workers take enjoyment sabotaging motivated workers. Simple math reveals linear promotion requires ~200 years for everyone in department to advance, yet the cadre are too timid to make a jump within the Maricopa system.

Pros

Great remote job where you pick your hours, grade papers, and interact with students. My management has been great and supportive.

Cons

Requires self discipline so not to get a bottleneck of papers and it can get a little mundane grading the same papers for the same classes. This is a temporary job that is not guaranteed.
