Pros

Good as a college student needing money throughout the summer season and a little bit of work during the winter. Great because you are on your own throughout the day, no one breathing down your neck. Management knows you are a student so there is good flexibility. Management and business development jobs are offered after you graduate if you do a good job. Good way to get into shape.

Cons

This may or may not be a con depending on who you are, but you have to be motivated to do well. You aren't selling anything, but you do have to get out there and hustle to make the premium pay advertised. The work is physically demanding but doable. I could see this being a bad thing for someone looking for an cake/ average pay job.

Pros

It's a good workout everyday, and you really get to know the city you work in if you didn't already. Management is pretty good and will work with you and your school schedule.

Cons

You get paid an hourly (low) base, and its commission if you go over that. Long hours, and they aren't shy about asking you to work every day you can. Work load can be intense at times. Not very many opportunities for career growth. No benefits.
