Good for students

Pros

It's good for students because the schedule is set, so it is easy to make sure we can work, while still attending all of our classes.

Cons

Manager wasn't always understanding about how caught up in school work we could be, and could have a real attitude when people called out because they have exams and papers and projects all due within a weeks time. Furthermore, because there are so so so many workers, not everyone is trained the same, and that tends to upset customers.

Pros

I was a teaching assistant and graduate assistant for 5 years at Rutgers and it is a reasonable place to work if you like research.

Cons

It's a public university so funding became difficult after the financial crisis. It is difficult to try and do blue sky research when you are uncertain every semester whether you'll be funded or not.
