Not a horrible place to work.

Marketing director

Business Outlook

Pros

Free professional development. Chance to work on various committees. They do do a pretty good job of recognizing the hard work and efforts of their employees with service awards and the like.

Cons

Parking is horrible! Also, you can be stretched thin if you don't watch out. I was serving on 5 committees at on time in addition to my regular duties. That meant more time was being spent working on these sub-projects and not my day to day job. My work did suffer for it and I had to eventually let my supervisor know that I could not serve on so many committees.

Student Recruiter for International Programs

Student recruiter, international programs

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Florida State University is truly the best university to be a student and to work for. They focus on educating the whole individual in both an academic stance as well as culturally. The office of International Programs changed my life through studying abroad so having a job where I got to share this experience with other students and helping to answer questions about studying abroad could not have been a more positive experience. International programs helps their recruiters with professional development, and presentation skills coaching. The team at International Programs is truly like a family, just as the whole Florida State University community. Best place to work! And Tallahassee is a wonderful place to live!

Cons

The pay is not high, but better than other jobs paid to students. I truly have nothing bad to say about the working environment or culture of this office.
