Pros

Seasonal, if you wanted to work only part of the year this may work great.

Cons

Season ramps up right before Christmas. Being what it is, tax preparation, it is understsood that the busiest time is from Jan to April. However, for such a ridiculously low wage, you work your tail off and are further expected to be held legally responsible. The expectations and the wages are so far off. What a shame. Just a chop shop.
