Pros

Most of the work is pretty easy- especially at welcome desk shifts. Most of the supervisors are super chill.

Cons

Sometimes the crowds can be a bit intense, and there is no available parking for part timers unless you buy a student commuter pass and park at a deck after 4:00.

Pros

My supervisor was fantastic: provided good feedback, flexibility in work schedule, opportunities for professional growth.

Cons

Usually 1-2 year contract, determined by grant funding and availability Workplace experience is more dependent on the individual researcher/research lab you end up working for than the university as a whole
