Dead-end, unrewarding wage slavery
Pros: The work itself is fairly easy, when it's not piling up.
Cons: You'll receive training, but you will often be asked to do things you haven't been trained for, and penalized or humiliated if you don't manage. Physically exhausting. Mentally and emotionally taxing, if you're unlucky enough to have an unhappy customer base and unreasonable managers. Virtually no opportunity for advancement. 

In my case, scheduling was an utter mess. In the interview, I gave my part-time availability as up to 25-30 hours per week. However, I was usually scheduled for 40-45 hours. If my clock-out time was scheduled during a rush, the managers would keep me up to three hours over time, often leading to a 50-hour work week. 50 hours a week on part-time pay with no benefits. Shameful.
