Pros

The managers actually care about your best interest and you as a person, they look at each worker as an individual instead of everyone as employees. The pay is pretty good with yearly raises and bonus's.

Cons

Can be hard to move up in the company, it is a fast paced job so if you get stressed easily you might not enjoy the amount of work needed during busy seasons, some of the residents can occasionally be rude but that also comes with any sort of customer service job and you build a good thick skin against it if you stick it out.
