Smaller paycheck but HUGE benefits

Graduate assistant

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

As a graduate assistant, you may not be making a ton of money, but in almost all cases you will receive at least a partial tuition waiver, which is a huge benefit to the job. Whether or not the job is low-stress depends on the professor you're assigned to, but generally it doesn't occupy too much time and you're able to focus on your studies.

Cons

The pay is not fully commensurate to Tallahassee's cost of living so you will have to live a very frugal lifestyle.
