Pros

The benefits, that’s it! I enjoyed the office.

Cons

The most toxic work environment I’ve ever been in. I was criticized, ridiculed, told I was worthless from day 1. Felt like I was walking on eggshells and a constant failure. I worked harder and harder and never got any recognition. Thank god, I’m in a new job where I’m respected, thanked and cared for and treated me like a human being.

Pros

I had a job and could read my books/draw during down time.

Cons

Horrible management. Incredibly aloof staff that does not take POC employees seriously. Also, multitude of microaggressions and straight up racism, Plain attempts of treating their staff without compassion and also putting their staff and students in harm's way during FSU's 2025 school shooting. Staff was told to keep working during an active shooting and even after people had been pronounced dead. This is not simply a testing center issue but a systematic concern of FSU's departments. Pay is also mediocre and only went up recently because of consistent complaints from the employees--not because they wanted to. Plenty of inappropriate behaviors were present while I was working there from upper management. Fawning, favoritism, power trips, blurring boundaries, etc. Parking is awful.
