Pros

The campus is gorgeous and there is always lots going on. There is decent work-life balance and it's a place where it is hard to get fired (aka lots of job stability).

Cons

The aforementioned job stability makes it so that many people who aren't great at their jobs are around for eternity. There's little turn over. Raises are impossible to get unless you get a new job. Be prepared to only get 3% every year and have the same people who are terrible at their jobs get the same raise. It's pretty frustrating.

Pros

Good hours, flexible to student time schedule, allowed me to do homework on the job

Cons

Sometimes, other students don't take your full shift and leave like 30 mins of your shift if you give it up

Pros

Great health insurance - I'm told it's really quite fire (no lie) Great location - love Westwood (sandwiched by Brentwood, Bel Air, and Beverly Hills) Union is tremendously supportive

Cons

Campus dining options are kinda weak - breaks my heart to eat the same thing every day
