Business outlook
Pros
Working at Georgia Tech as a teaching assistant is a comfortable job which covers tuition (not all fees), which generally requires less than the contract's 13 hours per week. Professors in the Industrial and Systems Engineering department are generally able to accommodate research and study needs. The students you get to teach are absolutely brilliant.
Cons
Class sizes are very large, and so the work load can spike during periods where homework and exams line up. The workload model seems to be shifting more responsibility with no shift in pay, so the deal is becoming worse for time. I am under the impression that Georgia Tech's Industrial and Systems Engineering department pays sub par with our high-end engineering schools.
