Pros

Great first job; they don't require prior experience. Awesome hours if you can get into wagon/WC/EVC rentals

Cons

Terrible management, terrible hours if you don't work wagons/WC/EVC. The people who actually go to the zoo suck and treat you horribly.

Pros

Good Crew and 1st Level Management, I wouldn't mind going back if there was a need.

Cons

Upper Management seems to be a bit hypocritical in there actions. Picking and Choosing which rules they enforce and which they will follow (but isn't that almost anywhere you work these days)
