I miss it
Senior Secretary (Former Employee), Davie, FL – January 15, 2013
Pros: everything
Cons: i cannot get back in
I loved working here and reluctantly left due to mandatory student teaching to complete my degree. The staff was excellent, the benefits were great, the hours were great, and working with college students was great. I have searched for another opening since I left. There is very little turn around in my job experience because it is such a great employment – more... opportunity. They pay could be better, but the perks make up for it. – less

I worked for FAU while young. The exposure to more experienced management who were caring and considerate in bringing me up to speed have set the standard for all management experiences since. The location is fantastic, but the university is a wonderful place to work.
