Pros

Tend to be flexible with student schedules at least my workplace was until we got a new district manager that made working there harder. Overall, you will meet good people, bad people, but overall good starter job to gain customer service skills.

Cons

Be ready to deal with tough customers, the ugly part of the world, roaches, karens, tough district managers and QA. Always do your scripting!
