Pros

Not only is the work itself interesting the environment is fun and relaxing but at the same time professional. Pay is great for a part-time job. Management is very understanding and accommodating of individual needs.

Cons

I can't really complain too much. It is slightly annoying that there aren't any pay raises with time or even when given additional responsibilities but it isn't that big of a deal since the starting pay is above average.
