Pros

Do homework during shift. Easy work, babysit the printers and help students with internet, MS office, and other simple issues. Flexible hours.

Cons

Easiest job ever, other co-workers manage to mess up and break rules. (No eating, no headphones) May be difficult to get the max of 20 hours a week.

Pros

The desktop support team at the Campuses really know their environment and all do their best. Within the groups at each campus, they're a pretty cohesive team. The telecom team is nice and definitely knows their stuff. There was a lot of experience (and typical stubbornness) on that team, but still good people. They do the job right.

Cons

The Network Team constantly had internal (to the team) battles for control of the network. Communication was nonexistent and management was poor, at best. Some projects never get completed without "pulling teeth" because of the senior network engineers dragging their feet.
