Pros

Stable and consistent work within certain colleges if enough professors are doing work. Ability to develop new skills with a level of self-direction

Students and recent grads are pigeon-holed into part-time entry level positions no matter experience or length of service.

Pros

Coworkers were usually great people and the best part of the job. Very flexible schedule and time to do your homework. Really easy job overall especially if you've never had one before.

Cons

Not paid enough for amount of work we usually had to do, the mailroom would be overflowing with mail and some students would be very understanding but others would be very entitled. There was also one point we we had three different bosses in the span of a year
