Pros

Some really good, smart, caring people work there. Lots of variety and work to be done.

Cons

Ling days, not unusual for a work day to be 10 or so hours. Some of the now former management couldn't rise above popularity contests and favoritism.

Pros

Good benefits package to continue education and to build funds for retirement. Depending on where dependents attend school, GU may cover the tuition cost. Great working environment for entry level positions.

Cons

1.) The pay is way below FLSA. 2.) The cost of living pay is not enough to assist with keeping up with inflation. 3.) Also, hourly pay or salaries are not equitable across the university. For instance, a budget in one department can pay more or less for the same position in another department.
