Pros

Call around in your department, if you find nothing, find another area on-campus that is close to your area of interest. There is always the little job fair and going online is a great tool. Try to get the stipend and your tuition taken care of, sweet deal.

Cons

In some areas, you won't get a lot of advice or general assistance. Since you are a grad student it's expected that you will pick up quickly.

Pros

As a researcher at OSU, I have had the flexibility to pursue my interests. Although the expectations are high, I have had very little pressure from advisers to work beyond my comfort level.

Cons

Like any postdoc position, it is not a permanent job. It is unfortunate that a university will not hire for long term. I've had little help from professors in finding permanent employment.

Pros

you get to know a lot about the system they use, and about curriculum management.

Cons

Little to no respect as a student worker unless it's from an advisor. Many have been told to never take the initiative.
