Pros

This job was an experience of a lifetime. It felt great greeting and interacting with people each day that were excited to be on Alcatraz. Learning the history and presenting it to groups and/or individuals was also very fun and rewarding.

Cons

Pay is $250 per 40 hour week if you commute, $150 if you live in staff housing, so you will be making less than minimum wage. Technically it's a volunteer job.
