Pros

I’ve done the freelance thing, and it’s more stressful than it’s honestly worth. I make just as much working for Five-Star and I don’t have to worry about finding my next client. The company isn’t perfect, but it’s good, dependable work for people who don’t want a boring 9-5 office job.

Cons

Busy season is packed (70+ hour weeks) and low season is VERY slow (sometimes as low as 20 hours).

Pros

- great network in the LA area - hours are rough but its the same across the industry - feels like we are part of a bigger purpose, clients seem to enjoy what we do - ability to transfer to other properties when needed - company is growing at a pace that doesnt seem crazy (another company in industry just had major layoff)

Cons

- hours are long and there are weeks that seem to never end - competitive business with many companies trying to poach - choose carefully on who you work for, the manager defines the position
