Pros

It’s only seasonal. You can transfer offices or districts as they call them You can make a bonus

Cons

Zero work life balance Managers get conflicting directions and micro managed so they can’t do their jobs The people above the office manager over ride the schedules so they ignore the times you’re able to work and give you 12 hour shifts or have you work earlier or later than you’re able Retaliation if you say no you can’t work more hours or be available on a day off Last minute schedule changes are constantly happening some with less than 24 hour notice Constant threats to your employment if you don’t play by their rules Hostile and toxic work environment
