Pluspunten

Good work/life balance if you are lucky to have a good manager which I didn't have. Benefits were good

Minpunten

There is absolutely no formal training for the job function you are about to do. Management is not helpful in the sense that you are assumed to have knowledge of all relevant departments of UCLA and have advanced skillset for MS Excel. Guidelines were not set and I had to figure out everything by myself. No feedback at all if I was doing a good or bad job until the day I got let go. Absolutely horrible experience.

Pluspunten

Decent benefits, but not really as great as everyone assumes. Some colleagues who really care and do great work. Impressive students.

Minpunten

Relatively poor pay and pay inequities. Extremely poor fiscal management - that CFO who was fired for outing it was spot on. Senior administrators and faculty are incentivized to spend a lot of money on things that serve few students and hoard resources to make themselves look good for performance reviews and tenure committees, but it means a lot of extra work gets dumped on a growing a number of mid-level administrators and support staff - who now face layoffs or added workloads. It's all strangling the university's ability to serve its students, but I know several faculty members simply don't care about students or teaching.
