Poor salary ranges, my manager is apparently schizophrenic, students great to work with.

Pros

Helping students is great. They're so enthusiastic and focused. It can be really hard for them to navigate all of the channels at FAU and they really appreciate when I take the time to help them find the answers they need.

Cons

Some managers are great, but as with many companies, some are not so great. Salary is not very good, benefits are okay. Parking can be impossible - can never leave for lunch in your car because you don't have time to find a space and return to your desk on time.

Pros

The university is growing and provides a lot of support to students who attend. They are trying to stay on the cutting edge of what attracts students.

Cons

A heirarchical system of management that encourages unhealthy competition. The budget cuts also contribute to a lack of job stability and reluctance to promote employees.
