Pros

First let me state there are numerous and varied work study positions and this is my reflection of my work in a campus office environment. -Good networking experience depending on your placement -Time management grooming -Generally flexible with class schedule -I increased a lot of a soft skills, mainly customer service -I had great managers

Cons

- As a work-study I felt overworked and under paid; I didn't expect $20/hr, but I felt like cheap labor at times considering other people in the office did more or less the same thing I did and were full-time salary employees. - Sometimes office protocol and communication was disorganized, cumbersome, and was incredibly frustrating.
