Vantaggi

IT was a place I enjoyed going to in the morning. I was handed projects and allowed to complete them as best I could. I felt a part of something bigger, supporting staff, administration, faculty and students. I felt the objective was to provide a service all could trust and find beneficial.

Svantaggi

Things change. We all have the option of putting up or shutting up. When you rely on a job for a living, to have it jacked around with is a scary thing. Upper management could swing like a pendulum: One moment you are overwhelmed, next you find you responsibilities usurped by someone that doesn't know how to work with others and do things in a unilateral and arbitrary way without consulting others. This tendency does nothing but alienate co-workers and as a result projects have no backup and many times are incomplete. As a result, the department gets a bad rap because no one knows why things aren't getting done.

Vantaggi

To some degree, you can decide when your SI sessions (tutoring/study sessions) take place. You must, however, attend the lectures of the courses for which you are serving as an SI. The job is pretty easy if you understand the course; you're mainly just explaining concepts from the course to students and helping them work problems, complete assignments, and prep for tests. It's easy to fit in another part-time job with this job. If you have no teaching experience but are considering teaching in the future, this is a way to get some useful experience.

Svantaggi

Many of the people running the SI department are a bit "silly," for lack of a better word. They have a lot of naive ideas about how you should conduct your sessions. Luckily, they mostly just talk about these ideas early in the semester and in their email newsletters and don't interfere with your work as long as you complete your tasks and no students complain.
