Productive and open to opinion.
Camera Operator/Video Editor (Former Employee), Rexburg, ID – June 6, 2012
Pros: work celebrations
Cons: no transportation
A typical day at work, I was in an office with hi-def screens and sound to edit video. Some days were spent filming different things on campus. My co-workers and I all loved working together and everything was fun. The hardest part of the job was sometimes working odd hours for an event, but the best part was doing what I loved.

A flexible and supportive workplace
Consultant (Former Employee), Provo, UT – May 1, 2012
I worked as a teaching assistant while in a grad program. The work life balance was a little stifling, but more because of education than work. My work load was reasonable and the flexibility about when it was completed was very accommodating to my academic schedule.

A good stable environment
Project Manager / Business Analyst (Current Employee), Rexburg, ID – April 23, 2012
Pros: pension, vacation
Cons: low training budget, home-grown expertise, cultural politics.
Many come to Rexburg to settle in and stay a while. BYU-Idaho is probably the pinnacle of employment within city limits. Those who work here "have arrived" and upward mobility in a career becomes dependent on either growing upward within the University, or moving on to another employer elsewhere.

Wonderful working while going to school
Research Assistant (Current Employee), Provo, UT – March 29, 2012
Pros: great schedule, on campus
Cons: low pay, no benefits
I enjoyed working here, but it was a pay cut from my last job. There was always someone, usually the professors, who were willing to help me out with problems, but I was still expected to complete work on my own.

Great for Students
Various (Current Employee), Provo, UT – January 18, 2012
It was wonderful working for BYU (in various positions) while being a student. All my supervisors understood the stress of education and were willing to help work around class schedules, testing, etc. THey also limit your work hours to 20 per week so you cannot overwork yourself and forget to do homework.

Welcome to the RB, would you like a Tennis Court?
Information Desk Operator (Former Employee), Provo, UT – May 18, 2012
Pros: time to do homework
Cons: angry people
Brigham Young University (BYU) is a great institute of higher learning and home to many, many, on-campus, student jobs. Mine was possibly the best. I worked for the campus rec center. My job was at the front desk dealing in information and tennis court reservations. It is not the most exciting job, but important and you get a lot of down time to do – more... your homework. As a busy college student, it doesn't get any better than that.

The hardest part of the job is dealing with the angry public. Such is the nature of customer service as we all know. The staff is friendly, as is everyone in Utah and you don't have to be Mormon to be "in the know" with the staff. It's all one big happy family with plenty of hugs and giggles. – less
