Pros

Cool work environment Free entry to the park Great discounts for tickets to several different theme parks Great discounts in Universal Able to see Universal movies before release A lot of variety in the lunch room

Cons

Very long probationary period, based on hours worked not length of time employed Extremely strict clock-in guidelines, you had to go to wardrobe, get your costume on, then walk to your attraction, I would get to work 30-60 min early to have time to clock in since if you clocked in even four minutes late you'd get an infraction.

Pros

Fantastic Benefits, flexible schedule, and can be a fun atmosphere when the day is right. Job is physically easy and depending on the venue, great coworkers.

Cons

Management's don't care about team members. Impossible to developed unless you personally know the hiring manger. While most guest are kind and keep to themselves, the rude guest do not have a problem disrespecting you and getting away with it.
