Depends on your department, but poorly compensated

Pros

If you're a student, working on campus is a good way to make reliable money. You can work with professors, who can assist you later in your career.

Cons

Competence of managers varies. Sometimes you will have zero contact, and other times they will be overly controlling and bullying. Just realise that you can switch jobs between different parts of the university as needed, so if you have a bad experience you can just quit and find work elsewhere.

It has been very good.

Pros

Work life balances. Very conducive and friendly and cooperative atmosphere. The organization is growing rapidly with high degree of innovation.

Cons

I can't say rightaway if there's anything specific downsides. Since it's a public institution, there may be limited advancement and growth for someone who prefers aggressive, challenging environment.
