Pros

FSU is the place where you serve the students and faculty with your passion. The work environment is decent and friendly. However, it really depends on what school you are in. If you work at FSU, you work for the state. The benefits are really tempting. You have opportunities to take on-the-job training classes for individual development.

Cons

Some of the academic programs really needs to be optimized. That is to say, from the professors to the staff, updated changes need to be made. The school is well-known for college football, but the academic reputations have long way to go.

Pros

Diverse staff Opportunity to form relationships from coworkers to residents Cheaper housing 1/2 off housing fees, $300 flexbucks a semester, and you get paid minimum wage for a 20 hour work week- Was great for the extra cash flow but I decided it wasn't worth the stress because I didn't need the money Great resume builder

Cons

Have to be back in room every night by 2 am weekdays and 4 am weekends Sometimes holidays depending on building assignment Living where you work, so sometimes residents would knock on my door at 3 in the morning and I would have to deal with the issue
