Job security and good benefits, not the best pay
Systems Support Analyst I (Current Employee) – Tempe, AZ – September 25, 2018
As far as IT is concerned, the pay is much better in the private sector. But, it is hard to beat the benefits and job stability at ASU. Promotion and advancement are largely based on politics, so be prepared to wait a while to advance. Also, pay raises are rare and do not cover COL increases.
Great place to work!
Technical Support (Former Employee) – Tempe – September 22, 2018
ASU is a great place to work, the people, the culture and the many opportunities make it a fun and rewarding workplace. They offer very generous benefits and some of the best healthcare services available.
Pros
Great environment, good work/life balance, great benefits
Cons
Parking is expensive and not convenient to walk to the office
Great part time opportunities for students
W. P. Carey 101 Student Facilitator (Former Employee) – Tempe, AZ – September 21, 2018
ASU offers a number of part time on-campus positions that fit great with your school schedule. They get you involved, keep you on campus and allow flexible hours in accordance with school.
Good student job, doesn't matter in real world.
Copy Editor (Former Employee) – Tempe, AZ – September 19, 2018
I made a point to work while in college, usually at the university itself. I worked at the school newspaper and in the tutoring center, and everyone assured me it would look great on my resume. The truth is, I don't think employers in the real world care about student jobs. The other discouraging thing is it is hard to get a reference from your job, since the turnaround is so high. If an employer called up the writing center at ASU now, nobody would know who I am to give me a recommendation, because everyone who worked there when I did has graduated and moved on.
Pros
On campus, can work around classes.
Cons
Meaningless in real world.
Incompetent and abusive work environment.
Assistant Research Professor (Former Employee) – Tempe, AZ – September 18, 2018
While I enjoyed helping graduate students develop models to understand the spread of epidemics, the stressful and abusive work environment generated by my supervisor was the reason I had to leave.
Pros
Salary, working with graduate students to develop models to understand the spread of epidemics.
Cons
Stressfull and abusive work environment generated by my supervisor
Great School and employer

Teaching Assistant (Current Employee) – Glendale, AZ – September 9, 2018

Productive workplace with positive environment.
Front Desk Receptionist (Former Employee) – Mesa, AZ – September 9, 2018
A typical day at work consists of coming in and going to my office area. Once settled I would go to my mentors/coworkers and ask for tasks. I learned quite a bit about how clerical work and had to take care of the front desk operations at times. Management was great and the workplace was like a family setting.
Research assistant jobs are a good opportunity
Research Assistant (Former Employee) – Tempe, AZ – September 8, 2018

ASU Athletics
Game Day Operations Intern (Former Employee) – Tempe, AZ – August 30, 2018
This internship allowed me to gain experience in a different area of sports. We helped market each sport at ASU and also put together different in-game competitions for the fans. Great internship.
Set daily activities.
Accountant Senior (Former Employee) – FDM Business Operations – August 29, 2018
Would begin reviewing accounts and make sure nothing was
posted erroneously. Management would check weekly on
status of transfers or entries. Many employees would complain
about the low pay. I really enjoyed working in my position.
Really enjoyed working directly with my Director and Associate
Director.
