Pros
GT housing provides a nice, well kept living environment that is thoroughly maintained to ensure that housing is the least of the worries for the students at Georgia Tech. The compensation for a Resident Adviser has improved significantly over the previous years bringing the RA job on par with other RA's at other campuses. The life of an RA at GT is easier than other campuses because of the docile nature of a GT student - rarely will you find a fight occurring in the residents halls. Being a GT housing employee allows you to help students while paying for college.
Cons
Since GT housing is there to provide a service to the students of GT, people who work there must work around the students schedule which is not the same as a regular business' schedule. This means (for a student worker) getting to the campus early before school starts and leaving after most have left for summer break. The student will have to do a lot of paper work which causes undo stress early in the semester and can hamper grades. The consistency of the boss for a building is also variable in personality and work ethic. This will have an impact on the student's job.
