Pros

Easy work, get to try out all the gear.

Cons

Hired part time so they could schedule me full time without paying for benefits. Inconsistent scheulding prevents you from making plans. Long hours with too many associates scheduled at the same time fighting for scraps kils your commission. Management, as expected, inept.
