Pros

None, at least for me

Cons

UCLA claims to have the best benefits, but I felt they were expensive and the more money you make the more you pay in premiums. You are put into brackets based on your income. Benefits are definitely not the best. They dont mention to you that the pension (retirement) is mandatory. For what i remember is was about 7.5% of paycheck. Also, if you want to park on campus you must pay $80 a month for a parking pass. These things are not mentioned during hiring process.

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
