Pros: You're surrounded by a diverse group of people who you bond with over teamwork and collaboration. The managers are usually understanding when you have an emergency and can't come in to work, as long as you give them ample notice. The employee discount is pretty good, and you can pick/change your hours to fit your schedule.
Cons: Some of the managers treat you like you're incompetent. There's a bit of disorganization between staff and management and since I've only been working there for about 6 months, I'm not clear on some procedures. Someone who has been a crew member for longer than I have will tell me to do something completely different than what a manager tells me to do and I get confused on what the truth is and I wonder why there are so many different versions of how to do some thing properly.My training wasn't very thorough, as there were/are a lot of things I didn't know when I started working and I got screamed at every time I made a mistake as if I was deliberately disregarding the rules. People would ask "who even trained you?" In a condescending tone because I made a mistake or couldn't remember how to make a sandwich properly. I tried my best to do what I was hired to do with the knowledge that I had been provided with from my training, and it wasn't enough. None of the managers took into account that maybe I hadn't been trained properly, and just put all of the blame on my (apparently) being ignorant.
