Pros

You feel valued and loved as a team member, the job in itself is magical and relatively simple. The company treats employees incredibly well.

Cons

A LOT of brand standards to remember, if I remember rightly, 32 things you need tk take a guest through on their visit. Something to that effect. Also crazy sales targets.
