Pros

BU provides plenty of opportunities for students to make money while a student. It's easy to find a job through the student link. Employers are generally flexible and understand school comes first. There's also a handful of jobs available that might relate to future career paths.

Cons

As low-level student jobs, you'll often be doing office work in office jobs or other less than desirable things. It shouldn't be unexpected.
