Pros

Experience to work in big sports events.

Cons

People are not very talented, specially from supervisors. Supervisor don't like to hear new ideas, they actually hate them. They make you feel that you are not important at all. Payment is extremely low, benefits not great. Not a lot of space to grow, If you have family will be difficult to live on these conditions. You will struggle to pay you rent and you will need to find a roommate or live very far from the studios in order for you to pay the rent. Salary is really, be aware!
