Pros

Great coworkers, meaningful work, flexible schedule.

Cons

They haven’t raised the pay for this position for 11 years, even though it is difficult work that not everyone can do. Shifts constantly end early and you do not get paid for the full time you were booked. It is not financially feasible to work this job without a second job as well.

Pros

Flexible hours, flexible work days

Cons

tons of office politics, promotion not based on merits but favoritism and connections. Increment is a joke

Pros

Imagine a great, diverse range of students and you have VCU.

Cons

The President has no soul and, quite frankly, the 93% acceptance rate is overstuffing programs and classrooms. I wouldn't send my kid here.
