Pros

Name recognition, downtown/DC location, on campus events = free food/booze, 9-5 workday.

Cons

Politics between main campus and other GU schools (Law, Medical, Foreign Service), obsolete technology and IT equipment. No priority to encourage staff/faculty to adopt best practices in approach to "business" aspect of education.

Pros

They provide a flexible schedule. The pay is relatively decent. Lifeguarding shifts are in 1 hour rotations, so you don't get overly tired.

Cons

You have to fold towels. Busy gym so there is not much time to do homework. Lifeguarding in general is boring.
