Pros

I am working as a program coordinator while earning a PhD for the past four years. Very flexible, laid back, friendly environment. Under the grant I have been able to work as a graduate fellow allowing for additional tuition assistance.

Cons

No major challenges. However, I have no control over pay. My salary comes from a grant that has restrictions.

Pros

They were very flexible with hours and it was a fun place to work. There was lots of downtime to do other things while on the clock, and an e-bike to get around campus quickly.

Cons

Toward the end they got pretty strict about keeping your computer on a certain tab to take online tickets, and you could get in trouble for not doing it. It’s tedious work overall.

Pros

Great Benefits, Vacation, Sick Days, Personal Days

Cons

parking is normally far away from your building, and normally growth within your unit is difficult, so you have to tranfer to another to grow.
