Pros: A major plus to the resume! 

If you manage to be on a good team, it is a great opportunity!
Cons: When you have a great team leader, it makes all of the difference here. Unfortunately, there are many managers and Senior Managers (and even a small group of executive directors) who have no real leadership qualities when it comes to leading/ training less experienced employees. Also, management does not typically catch on to this until it has become far too late (if at all).  If you are among the unfortunate to be placed on teams with these inexperienced and bullish people, you virtually write your own pink slip.  

The staff level position has some work life balance outside of busy season, but any level above this really doesn't.
