Pros

This review is for a STAFF position in one of the many administrative offices on campus. Yes, there are more than just students and faculty on campus; a university is a business and it takes people to run a business. -Wonderful colleagues to work with! -Beautiful college campus -No overtime hours required (depending on the department and any ongoing projects) -Excellent benefits and vacation time, especially once you reach past 5 years

Cons

-No room for career growth -You're basically stuck in your job until you find a job in another campus department or off-campus -Not easy to get a job transfer to another campus department -Poor communication across campus departments - I worked here more than 5 years and my job title, job description, and pay never changed; the person who replaced me is entry-level and right out of college. Jobs tend to stay that way at GT which is why you have to leave GT if you're ever going to grow or move up in your career, or own a home of your own. -Pay is LOUSY. If you work in corporate doing the same job, you'll make double what GT pays (web development, communications, marketing, analytics, event planning, etc.). -If you have a trust fund, a wealthy spouse, or are close to retirement, or are a top level director in a campus unit, then GT is the place for you. Everyone else, look elsewhere!
